Let me applaud ARM for this, and contrast it with Texas Instruments who
release a version of gcc for the MSP430 at
http://software-dl.ti.com/msp430/msp430_public_sw/mcu/msp430/MSPGCC/
latest/index_FDS.html
This page does include gcc source code - but it is incomplete - all Gnat
and gnatlib sources have been deleted, so simply enabling Ada and
building the cross-tools won't work.
So when I get round to revising the MSP430 Ada project (soon I hope) it
won't be based on TI's own sources but the FSF code.
