Hmm..Might be nice to target gcc 3.4 since although it looks promising, I am
not sure that
GNAT will be released in gcc 3.5 (which is currently targeted for
tree-ssa)..

This is nice to have since ACT has not provided up to date public releases
since 3.15. Perhaps this will
entice them to release one at http://libre.act-europe.fr

I suspect part of the reason for the hold off is that the FSF releases
containing Ada have been generally more
broken than 3.15.

Gcc 3.4 was looking like it might actually be a pretty good release for
GNAT... I have not checked
back recently on progress.


Anyone run the test suite recently on any popular targets and want to report
results?
