That depends on the platform.  In Windows, the file to edit is 
src/gnuwin32/MkRules, where you would need to change the F77 and FLIBS 
definitions (and perhaps others).  Notice that this is not in the 
"user-customizable" section, so if you do this, you may be on your own 
to track down the problems it causes.  (Revolution Computing has changed 
compilers successfully, and they might be able to help you, or may 
already have done what you are thinking of doing.)

Other platforms use configure scripts to set all of these things; 
running ./configure --help in the home directory will tell you lots of 
options and environment variables to play with.
