Sorry for the late reply.  First I'm using the GNAT GPL 2015 Compiler with the AWS from libre.Adacore.com.  Since in your comment you mention that you got the AWS libre edition to compile I'm leaning towards the fact that I'm messing up in my makefile.  Gnoga seems like a viable option as well and I appreciate the suggestion, but like I said you seemed to have got AWS to compile with the same tools so I think instead of ditching something because I can't get it work wouldn't benefit me in the long run.

If you possibly show a copy of your makefile.conf and tell me which terminal you're using I would really be thankful.
