That's because libtool was configured to use GCC.  In the
multi-language branch, libtool uses different configurations for each
language, so it is likely to use g77 for linking.  Except that the
multi-language branch isn't ready for Fortran yet.  Feel like giving
it a try?  It should be quite trivial to do.

This warning is probably right; it isn't always possible to link
static libraries into shared libraries.  The solution, that you've
already suggested in the GCC mailing list, is to arrange for libg2c to
be created and installed as a shared library too.  But, again, someone
has to do it :-)

CVS libtool has relaxed this checking on some OSs on which it was
overly cautions about linking static libraries into shared ones.  You
may want to give it a try.  Note that CVS libtool != multi-language
libtool, that's a separate branch.
