Without GNAT-LLVM, no Ada compiler from any vendor on the new ARM-based Mac nor on iOS/iPadOS devices. So that is why 2 prior authors omitted option 0: because it is effectively a degenerate inferior not-quite-a-full-option.
It wouldn't support Apple's Intel stuff, they stopped developing GCC
around v4 IIRC, I know Simon has done porting work, I don't know how
much. But when I looked GCC always seemed to be missing flags for the
most recent OSes.
Apple also don't support PPC anymore, haven't for a number of years.
