Most certainly, no.  Building cross-compilers has never been extremly
difficult with GCC, although compiling the whole toolchain (assembler,
linker, and so on) is quite bit of work.

AFAIK, the main problem in retargeting GNAT is not the compiler
itself, but the run-time library.  Especially if you want to use
tasking, the run-time library has to be carefully adjusted to the
target environment, otherwise you won't get the Ada semantics.
