Yes, although of course unlike the other gcc front ends,
to install from sources requires that you go and fetch
at least a gnat1 starter executable from somewhere. That's
not significantly less work than installing a complete
GNAT in the first place.

I just don't want people to get the wrong impression here.
I think a fair analogy is the extent to which chill got
picked up as part of typical gcc installs.
