In my copious (:-) free time, I have been trying to build GNAT targed
for the ARM7TDMI process with the thumb instruction set.  Since this
target is not supported by GCC 2.8, but only in recent egcs trees, I
do not have much choice.

I have gotten basic code generation working, but I haven't worked far
enough to link something together yet.  The daunting task, is going to
be the run time.

At some point, I would like to put together the instructions about
what I did to build all of this.
