So far I haven't seen any updates. But it's still Ada95 so you will probably not need a ug/rf
update, and as for gcc afaik the only difference to gnat 3.15p is that you can now use gcc 3.2
switches and optimizations.
As soon as I can I will make sure you can install gnat 3.14p, 3.15p and 5.0 simultaneously so
that you can use our ebuilds instead of installing binaries in /opt. (Gentoo's gnat 3.15p build
supports both native and fsu threads, the binaries only support fsu).
