I could tell you the story of needing to run a small PowerPC program to set up a slightly old Apple WiFi device a couple years ago. Buy Parallels. Call Apple and send $30 to get Snow Leopard Server--that's 10.6. Virtualize Snow Leopard Server on Parallels to run the WiFi set-up program in Rosetta.)

Without paying a hefty proprietary-licensing fee to AdaCore, isn't GNAT-LLVM distributed only under pure GPLv3 without the Runtime Library Exception (RLE)? Wouldn't that mean that GNAT-LLVM on MacOS (and iOS) can be utilized by software distributed under GPL-compatible licenses, lest that software violate terms of GPLv3?
