If you want to keep your gcc-2.95.2 installation, and also install gnat,
a better solution is to install the rpm files from
http://www.gnuada.org/rpms313p.html
instead of the distribution from nyu.edu.

The gnuada distribution renames the compiler to gnatgcc, so there is
no conflict.

I have been using the gnuada distributions co-exiting with later
gcc installations for several years now, with no problem.

Install it in a different location from your 2.95.2 compiler and
everything will be just fine.
