Disable Fortran by default for Trilinos on Mac OSX machines as well?

Description:
Given that most Mac OSX machines don't have a working Fortran compiler by default, should we change the CMake logic to disable Fortran by default on Mac OSX machines? That will technically break backward compatibility but given the you don't need Fortran to get a lot out of Trilinos, I am not sure how many users would notice.
I am asking this since I am modifying TriBITS to fix a defect in how it handles the default for <Project>_ENABLE_Fortran
and I want to move all special platform-specific logic to the project itself. Since I will be updating Trilinos/CMakeLists.txt for this refactoring, I thought I would ask about since I could make this change at the same time.
