I'd be willing to give it a try, but I don't even get this far:
find_fortran_compiler detects the NAG f95 installed on our box, and 
uses that to build, but the compile fails in:

f95  -fixed   -O4 -target=native    -c 
/home/kang/derek/soft/python/scipy/special/mach/i1mach.f -o 
build/temp.freebsd-4.6.2-RELEASE-p2-i386-2.2/i1mach.o
Unrecognised option -target=native passed to ld

Unrecognised option -target=native passed to ld

173: Inconsistent structure for arg 1 in call to I1MCRA
[f95 error termination]
error: failure during compile (exit status = 512)

looks like another bug here (or two, since the linker might still fail 
when passed the
-target=native flag) :-(
