I think we will need some gcc's f90 specialist's opinion.

My gut feeling is, a manually multilib'ed include directory like the one
above (%_includedir/%_lib) can't be right, unless GCC starts to support
searching multilib'ed include dirs (It currently doesn't).

That said, I am in favor of a directory rooted at %{_libdir}, say
%{_libdir}/finclude
or %{_libdir}/f90
or %{_libdir}/gfortran
