No, I am innocent of any knowledge of the process that led to GNAT.

Sounds like a mighty inexpensive way for SGI to get a compiler!
I would think lots of hardware and OS vendors would see that. And it
will certainly help portability when all machines have the same ACT
compiler, with the same design decisions, implemented/not-implemented
parts, etc.

Are Sun and IBM paying for the SunOS4.x and OS/2 validations then?
Maybe Microsoft will pay for the NT validation?
