I'm thinking of attempting to build trunk again, and carefully go

the idea, though, of not being able to compile the majority of my
programs to get Ada working (though I'm trying to build Ada into my
normal compiler because I also don't like the idea of having two
compilers hanging around).
This is the job of your distribution, IMHO. What platform are you on?
On most GNU/Linux distributions nowadays, GCC supports Ada out of the
box. On Debian, official Ada support is in GCC 4.1.1. There is also
an experimental package gcc-4.2-snapshot which includes the Ada
compiler, but no support for it.
Whatever your distribution, I encourage you to review the build
scripts (beware, they can be very complex, e.g. in Debian) and the
build logs to see if the distribution maintainers encountered the same
problems as you did. Then get in touch with the maintainers and
contribute patches :)
