  I am pretty sure you need exactly version 2.8.1 of gcc, certainly 3.0 won't
  work.

  If this is for Solaris x86, there was a binary version announced on this
  newsgroup a few days ago. Thread "GNAT 3.13p build for Solaris 8_x86".
  
  If all you want a binary version of GNAT for Solaris/SPARC, there is one at
  
  ftp://ftp.cs.nyu.edu/pub/gnat/3.13p/gnat-3.13p-sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1-bin.tar.gz
  
  But 2.5.1 binaries do work on Solaris 8, don't they?
