Have you created the symlink *after* running configure?  If yes, the automake
testsuite will remember that no fortran compiler was found at configure time,
so it will skip the fortran-requiring tests to avoid risking spurious failures.

Re-running configure should be enough to convince the automake testsuite to
use your gfortran compiler.  Please let me know if this doesn't work.

Thanks,
