Not completely correct.  It is true for GNAT 3.10, which is what I
think you meant, but GNAT 3.11 has some patches that postdate the GCC
2.8.1 release.  They will be in GCC 2.9, however.  They are also in
recent EGCS releases, but EGCS has changed the front end interface in
an incompatible way, so it is not possible to have a version of a
front end that works for both EGCS and GCC2 (and EGCS will continue to
change the interface, so this will be an ongoing problem).
