binary release that can't even compile itself without asserting a
fatal compiler error.

It is perfectly possible to bootstrap this version of GNAT, if you have
the right versions of everything. So the issue here is not whether this
version can compile itself, of course it can, it is whether Ronald Cole
without help from us can do it? Apparently the answer is no. We provide
our binary releases on an as-is basis, and they have always been bootstrapped.
We do NOT particularly spend a lot of effort ensuring that they can easily
be built without our help from sources, though many people do in fact succeed
in this effort.

Certainly if you are specifically concerned with the "validity" of a binary
release, we would advise you to get it from us. We take no responsibility
for public versions that are around on the net. We try to make sure that
they are in good shape, and correspond to what we distributed originally, but
we cannot guarantee this, and we certainly do NOT guarantee that everyone will
be able to build them from sources.
