NOTE: Many GNAT binary distributions include a replacement for your gcc (often called xgcc), that is installed over gcc and add support for GNAT (NOTE: this way you can lose support for other languages - for instance, Obj-C or Fortran 77 - if the gcc replacement wasn't compiled with support for those languages enabled). -- Ciao. -----[ Roberto Lupi ]--------------------------------------- mailto: lupex+NEWS@ascu.unian.it ------------------------------------------------------------
