When you say "GPRBuild was installed from official packages" I suppose
you mean AdaCore's?

I think the trouble is that gprbuild has lots of flexibility to run
different compilers in different circumstances, and this can confuse it.

I presume that your GNAT's gcc and gprbuild are both on your PATH (NB,
gprbuild is looking for "gcc", not "gnatgcc"). If this is OK and
gprbuild still doesn't work, then execute

   $ gcc -v

and check the Target: line; here, I get

   $ gcc -v
   Using built-in specs.
   COLLECT_GCC=gcc
   COLLECT_LTO_WRAPPER=/opt/gcc-4.6.0-x86_64/libexec/gcc/x86_64-apple-darwin10/4.6.0/lto-wrapper
   Target: x86_64-apple-darwin10
   [...]

and you need to tell gprbuild to use that target.

Without,

   $ /opt/gnat-gpl-2010-x86_64/bin/gprbuild -P default
   default.gpr:1:09: no languages defined for this project
   gprbuild: "default" processing failed

With,

   $ /opt/gnat-gpl-2010-x86_64/bin/gprbuild \
     --target=x86_64-apple-darwin10 -P default
   gcc -c -g -gnatQ -gnato -fstack-check -g acc.adb
