During the last two months, I took on my free time to fix some bugs in
FSF GNAT. AdaCore was very reactive in assisting me, reviewing the
proposed fixes, testing them using their own regression test suite and
modifying them when needed.

As a company, AdaCore will not fix bugs reported by non-customers
before doing what they have to do for their customers. But they do
invest resources in helping people *fix* bugs in the public version.

The way to influence FSF GNAT development is to *do* it :)
