we build gcc 3.3 on linux (Redhat) with gnat 3.14p, but I guess you can do
it with gcc 3.1 or gcc 3.2 (with gnat executables included)
I think the most tested configuration is to build gcc 3.3 with gcc 3.2
there are no required source patches, linux is one of the primary platform
supported by gcc
the most important thing to avoid problems is to use the same gcc for C and
Ada when you build
We make more tests on Windows than on linux, because all of our customers
use Windows
