WHEEEOOOO!  I built trunk!

It appears that all went well, and that the vast majority of the tests
passed (including all of libmudflap).  It looks like it was more a
question of checking out at the right time than anything.  Thanks to
Duncan for pointing out to me that the 4.2 branch is indeed ``older''
than GNAT-GPL.  And thanks to everyone who replied for not simply
telling me to sod off for being annoying and/or and idiot.

I may yet do some hacking on the sources.  Never hurts to learn more
about the tools you use.
