BTW -- is it just me, or is the Ada compiler extremely slow?
It depends on what you are used to. GNAT is considered fast, for an Ada
compiler. I doubt that it compares favorably to a C compiler though.
Also, note the size of the source files and run time library. It takes a
long time to bootstrap it in part because it is so large.
* The build process isn't exactly "make; make install" :-) We'll have
to pull out the runtime and figure out how to deal with gnattools. I
suspect there'll be problems with GNAT in cross build environments too.
I am sure that there will be problems of this sort with getting GNAT integrated
into EGCS.
When I first started doing GNAT builds, it did not work for objdir != srcdir
builds. I don't know if that has been fixed yet.
