Or let's put it this way: Would AdaCore have the resources to
support two entirely different backends.  Would it even want to
hire new engineers or let its existing work-force learn compiler
internals of another compiler to support just one target?  I don't
think so.


The answer is simple, depends on $$$ as with most other things.
In practice I don't think our ia64 customers are that performance
sensitive, at least not so far.
