Yes I did. When you build gprbuild, it also builds all other utilities 
including gprlib.exe.

You can try it yourself. It is here:

    https://github.com/AdaCore/gprbuild

There are two problems to fix to be able to do so:

1. OS_Lib does not contain Kill and Kill_Process_Tree gprclear requires. 
You can comment them out. Kill is relatively easy, you must add win32ada 
to the project and do:

    procedure Kill (Pid : Process_Id; Hard_Kill : Boolean) is
       use Win32.Winbase;
       use Win32.Winnt;
       Process : HANDLE;
       Result  : Win32.BOOL;
    begin
       Process := OpenProcess
                  (  PROCESS_ALL_ACCESS,
                     1,
                     Win32.DWORD (Pid_To_Integer (Pid))
                  );
       Result  := TerminateProcess (Process, 1);
    end Kill;

Kill_Process_Tree is more complicated, but could be just Kill (:-))

2. There is a dynamic_constraint somewhere put on a type, that promptly 
crashes the compiler. I removed it.

However I was not aware of the directory ...\libexec\gprbuild. I 
replaced only the executables in ...\bin. Thank you for the hint. Maybe 
that would do the trick. I will try it next week and report back.
