Actually i would expect the next version of GNAT for NT to have
a GUI debugger since there is now one with the latest version of
gnu-win32 from cygnus. In fact, with a lot of fiddling I have gotten
the new version of the debugger to work with this older version of gnat
(based on the older cgynus release).. (Without the Ada specific gdb stuff but
that is not really needed)
