It looks like there's a failure to determine the version number of your
gfortran. Maybe putting the failing like in a try/except and assigning 0 or
1 to `status` is a workaround. To fix the issue the gnu_version_match
method in distutils/fcompiler/gnu.py may have to be improved; tests are in
distutils/tests/test_fcompiler_gnu.py
