GNAT 3.15p wasn't dropped, it was just updated to GNAT 2005. Check the
revision history on ie.: http://www.freshports.org/lang/gnat. There is
still a binary version of the old compiler on servers used to bootstrap
the new one.

There are no direct technical problems just a lack of manpower. Maybe
you can help - try to download and play with my port than share your
experience (beware, it doesn't deinstall).
