I was wondering if anyone had looked into porting GNAT
to Symbian OS* (formaly EPOC32). The SDK available from
their website is a port of gcc (C/C++ front ends).

Is there such a thing 'Dummy's guide to porting GNAT'???

*Symbian are a joint venture company made up from -
Ericsson, Nokia, Matsushita (Panasonic), Motorola,
Psion, Siemens and Sony-Ericsson. So a fairly heavy
weight crowd!
