I'm not sure I understand your problem: I think you want to keep the
source at some other place than the objects? Then you can build in the
object directory and use -I to pull in (various) source trees, e.g:

  cd $OBJECTDIR

  gnatmake -I$PLATFORM_SOURCES -I$LIBRARY_SOURCES -IPROGRAM_SOURCES $PROGRAM

In this case you wouldn't have to maintain project files. And all
object an temporary files are build in the current directory.
