GNAT is based off the GNAT 2.8.1 code base with minor patches to the 
code generator. EGCS 1.0 was about equal to 2.8.1, at which point 
pretty much all the non-ACT developers decided to work on EGCS, which
become GNU GCC again a couple generations down the line. So the gcc 
code generator should be well ahead of the GNAT code generator.
