In sources from MinGW.org (i.e. not AdaCore), $ grep -l 'As a special exception' \ lib/gcc/mingw32/4.3.0/adainclude/*adb |wc -l 469 $ ls lib/gcc/mingw32/4.3.0/adainclude/*adb |wc -l 469 So these files annouce to be GPLed with a special exception (GMGPLed). No support comes with this compiler, of course.
