I tried following your advice, but still got some errors .
What I am wondering : where did you get the mentioned patch
gcc-2.7.2.2-ada.dif. I unpacked gnat-3.10p-src.tar.gz, but
that did NOT come with that patch. I assume that that is 
partly responsible for my trouble, as I get the following
errors :
gcc: back_end.adb: linker input file unused since linking not done
gcc -c -O2  -gnatpg -gnata -I. -I. gnat1drv.adb
gcc: gnat1drv.adb: linker input file unused since linking not done
gnatbind -I. -I. -o b_gnat1.c -n gnat1drv.ali
gnatbind: Cannot find: gnat1drv.ali
make[1]: *** [b_gnat1.c] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/gcc-2.7.2.3/ada'
make: *** [gnat1] Error 2                                              

As you see, this is on a redhat based linux box (i586) and, of course
glibc. 
Any comments are welcome (also in french), as we need the ADA
compiler for educational purposes.

Thanx, Andreas
