"It is a seperate FSF product, the same as GNAT itself, but where you get it
from and how you build/port/use it I don't know."
This is a little misleading. FSF had and has nothing to do with GNAT and
Garlic. GNAT is currently maintained by ACT, but we assign the copyright
to Free Software Foundation -- a useful way of makingit clear that the
intention is that it remain under the GPL. Similarly, Garlic is a product
that has primarily been created in France that will be maintained by
ACT/Europe. Again, the copyright is being assigned to FSF to guarantee
continued free availability, but these are not FSF products in the
sense that GNU itself or GCC are FSF products.
