I should also point out that the last time I tried an HPPA bootstrap of GNAT using the current GCC development sources, it would successfully bootstrap even at -O2. So whatever bug in the HP PA config files was that caused this problem, it has since been fixed, though integrating this fix into GNAT if the next version of GCC is not released before the HPPA port is supported is indeed additional work.
