[Numpy-discussion] g95 detection not working

[Andrew Jaffe]

Hi all,

at least on my setup (OS X, Python 2.4.1, latest svn of numpy and 
scipy), config_fc fails to recognize my g95 compiler, which was directly 
downloaded from http://g95.sourceforge.net/ (and always has failed, I 
think). This is because the current version string doesn't conform to 
the regexp pattern; the version string is
"""

I've attached a patch below, although this identifies the version string 
with the date of the release, rather than the gcc version; I'm not sure 
which is the right one to use!

Andrew
