As others have replied you can use scenario variables.
And they are passed from commandline.
But gprbuild looks for variables passed in with -X like -XVARIBLE=Value
however if that is not found it will look for that name amomg the 
environent variables

so I create env vars for current os/arch/db in the os
and test on every combination needed
db_libs := ();
case db is
   when Oracle     => db_libs := db_lib1;
   when Postgresql => db_libs := db_lib2;
   when sqlserver  => db_libs := db_lib3;
end case


other_libs := ():
case os_arch is
  when AIX_PPC   => other_libs := lib1;
  when Linux_x64 => other_libs := lib2;
  when Linux_arm => other_libs := lib3;
  when Win_64    => other_libs := lib4;
end case

and so on

the use db_libs and other-libs elsewhere in the gprfile
