I haven't tried AVR programming with GPS or GNAT GPL toolchain, but I 
have been using AVR-Ada 1.0 and 1.1 from http://avr-ada.sf.net/
for Arduino. So far it has worked pretty well on OpenBSD, Fedora Linux,
and Windows XP.

Quick tutorial for Windows XP:
1. Install Win-AVR somewhere
2. Install AVR-Ada into same location
3. Set PATH to point Win-AVR's bin directory.
4. Compile with avr-gnatmake.

I have used following Hello World example (Mercurial repository) with 
AVR-Ada 1.0 (and 1.1) to test the setup:
http://bitbucket.org/tkoskine/arduino-hello

For AVR-Ada 1.1 you can use command:
avr-gnatmake -XMCU=atmega328p -Phello.gpr

to compile the source files for Arduino.
