Has someone swapped out the 650 fork for a 700? The geometry looks really weird.

No swapping there. That is just one of the oddball framesets that Gitane (and everyone else for that matter) was making in the 1990s, prior to the new UCI rules coming out mandating certain geometries.

Here are some examples in the catalogues that I have been able to get ahold of:
