I suggest you look at how I build GPS on Debian.  It took me many
hours of work to get it to build, especially with GNAT 3.15p.  In the
end, I bypassed GPS's configury and makefile completely; I build
almost everything from one makefile (debian/rules) and one GNAT
project file (gps.gpr).  In the process, I avoid building the bundled
copy of Tcl 8.1 because it fails, and Debian already has tcl prebuilt.
The bundled copy of cschthtml also required patching.  Finally, I have
some bug fixes.

All the build scripts are in the debian subdirectory in
http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gnat-gps/gnat-gps_2.1.0-8.diff.gz

As you can see, the above is for GPS 2.1.0.  As part of the transition
to GCC 4.1 in Debian, I am working on a newer version of GPS.  The
problem is AdaCore's release management:

GPS 3.1.3 requires GtkAda with the CVS tag gps-3_1_3, which is not a
proper release of GtkAda.  Neither gtkada-2_4_1 nor gtkada-2_8_0 will
do.  The CVS HEAD of GPS (4.0.0w, not tagged yet) is closer to
building, but will require GtkAda 2.8.1 not 2.8.0.

So I'm currently waiting for the CVS tag for GtkAda 2.8.1, and then
I'll patch GPS 4.0.0w until it compiles.

The good news is that I will be able to use libgnatvsn4.1 and
libgnatprj4.1; this was not possible with libgnatvsn-3.15p and
libgnatprj-3.15p, due to changes in between GNAT 3.15p and GCC 4.1.
