Almost the same as compiling 3.4: http://ada.krischik.com/gnat-3_4.html Well Fortran is called f95 now. The main problem is that the HEAD release may work today and won't compile tomorrow. Your chances are better if you won't compile java - those guys can't understant the meaning of "stage 3: bug fixes only" and regulary replace a hundred odd files with the result that libjava won't compile any more - they certainly fit there steriotype.
