Personally I have no problems with PATH shenanigans. However, you
_might_ be interested in gnatfe [1]:

"This script acts as a front end to the GNAT compiler in the case where
you don't want to install GNAT over an existing compiler (perhaps your
main compiler is Apple's gcc-4.0.1, which doesn't support Ada), and/or
where you have more than one GNAT version installed."
