We will have to see how this develops. At best it will be an interesting
experimental environment for trying out new ideas in a situation where
stability is not the first order of business. At worst, it will just be
a further divergence in gcc versions. Hopefully it will succeed in being
the first of these rather than the second.
Actually it would be very nice if there was more experimental activity
with GNAT in terms of interesting new experimental ideas, but so far
we haven't seen much of this -- hopefully we will see more in the future,
this is after all why the sources are available (and why the DoD insisted
on the sources being distributed under the GPL!)
For example, it would be nice if someone would have a crack at trying
out Tuck's "with type" idea for resolving mutual dependencies in library
units -- probably this would not be too hard.
Note incidentally that one of the improvements in 3.10 is that we have
rewritten all the former spitbol utilities in Ada -- which removes one
obstacle to modifying GNAT, particularly when it comes to adding new
syntax etc.
