Ok, let us know how it works ;)

I already treat the case of libgfortran.so.1 special since that is the
default on RHEL5/Itanium. It would be easy to add the special case
libgfortran.so.3 assuming it is relative to gfortran, i.e. in ../lib/
libgfortran.so.3

Sure. I will put it on my list.

Not that I know off. It seems that there isn't one that is universally
accepted.
