speaking of 3.14 maybe now is another good time to look for rumors 
of the 3.14p - public release; however in spite of the future 3.14p
release and whenever that release might be I have to mention that 
binaries for various platforms never appeared at 
ftp://cs.nyu.edu/pub/gnat/
for the 3.13p release; below is some of the release history:

arch    OS                      3.10p   3.11p   3.12p   3.13p   3.14p

what have folks been doing about 3.13p on those other platforms?
is this what the future holds for such platforms? note that in the 
past you needed the prior version running before you could compile 
the source of the current version - has that changed? or should we 
all be trying mightily to get a 3.13p built and running so that 
we might then build a forthcoming 3.14p?
