    I've compiled gcc/gnat 3.4.3 on fedora core 3 prefixed to a different
    path than /. I had to disable multilib in order for it to build. The
    resulting installation seems to work. I copied it to a gentoo amd64,
    and it works on there as well. I tried it with some small ada programs
    and they compiled and ran the same as they do on fedora core 3. I'm
    having problems using it in the ebuild to bootstrap the cross
    compiler. It is not not passing the sanitty check.

    I can use that gnatgcc to compile other c programs.

    If I set my path to /opt/local-tools/host-gcc-ada-3.4.3/bin/ I can use
    gnatmake and what not, but I don't like have a kludged development
    environment.

    To compile it on fedora core 3 I basically just took the ebuild for
    gcc gnat 3.4.3 and hacked it up a bit in regular bash script and
    prefixed
    it to /opt/local-tools/host-gcc-ada-3.4.3/

    While I might be able to use it that way, I'd rather get it working in
    the gentoo portage system.
