Good places to start are:
  For the current gcc sources that include GNAT:
    http://gcc.gnu.org/
  For the current ACT sources:
    http://libre.act-europe.fr/

GNAT has become a part of the standard GCC library maintained on the gcc
site, but ACT still maintains their own tree.  The sources at the GCC site
are the most current with respect to the back end, the sources at the ACT
site are the most current with respect to Ada.  The last I heard (on the GCC
mailing list) is that ACT is working toward keeping the two source trees
fairly well synchronized.

For a new port it's probably best to use the GCC site.  Once you figure out
how to use CVS you can get the latest sources from either site at any time.

I hope this helps,
