I haven't tried it for a long time. The download site doesn't seem to
be responding, but I'll try later. Exactly what package did you
download? The sourceforge site seems to just point to the
AdaCore site for the GNAT/GPL for Windows download.

A google search for the error message doesn't turn up any GNAT
references except for this thread, so I doubt that it's a common
problem. Did you add the GNAT directory to the front of the
PATH? Maybe if you added it to the back, GNAT is calling some
other (wrong) gcc.
