Okay, so much for the easy fix.

The only way to get g77 is to install all of gcc 3.4.4.  On OS X the  
macosx variant is used by default (which uses the gcc-3.3 and g++-3.3  
provided by Apple with the developer tools and the g77-dp-3.4.4  
provided by DarwinPorts).  The darwin_6 variant is there to support  
jaguar.

Can you send me the config.log.  Also what version of OS X do you  
have and do you have any software installed in /usr/local?
