Because in my opinion it is built upon an inferior technology. It uses 
XML, it is not self-contained (has a mess of semi-hidden supplementary 
files spread all around the system). It is very easy and common to have 
gprbuild not working where gnatmake never had any problem. The biggest 
danger is turning it into yet another "configure" / CMake.
