Version 3.10 was designed to be compatible with RH version 4, and Version 3.11 is designed to be compatible with RH version 5. Unless you are planning on furious work over the holidays, I would wait for version 3.11, and then plan to use it with RH 5. There has in the past also been a nice adaptation for Debian, which we would expect to also happen for 3.11, so if you prefer Debian that's probably fine too. I don't know the status of GNAT with other versions of Linux.
