The GNAT-to-Android/ARM cross-compiler known as GnatDroid-ARMv7 has been av=
ailable on FreeBSD and DragonFly since even before it was officially suppor=
ted in GCC.

I've produced a second cross-compiler, GnatDroid-x86 which targets the 32-b=
it Android/x86 platform.  The nice thing about Android/x86 is that it can b=
e installed on a virtual machine like VirtualBox, so it can be easier to te=
st programs without actual hardward that GnatDroid-ARMv7.

GnatDroid is only available on FreeBSD and DragonFly BSD, although somebody=
 could replicate the effort for other platforms if so desired:
