I have the same problem with W2k. I have those versions and gnat
3.15p.

The problem is in these lines in reggnatcom.ads

pragma Linker_Options ("-lole32");
pragma Linker_Options ("-loleaut32");

it can't find the lib ole32.dll, but it exists and is in
c:\windows\sytem32\ole32.dll. I don't know with it doesn't find it.
I've supposed that it looks for libole32.o or libole32.a or it has
something to do with directories. I've tried

   pragma Linker_options ("--dll-search-prefix=c:/windows/system32/");
   pragma Linker_Options ("-Lc:\windows\system32\");

and lot of things. But it doesn't works neither. Perhaps there is some
problem with my special configuration, W2k usually has the system
files in c:\winnt not in c:\windows.

It's just speculation, I don't have the first idea and I don't know
what else try.
