I must say I can't find from the bugzilla comments what is the relationship
between this PR and Ada builds, in particular since this PR seems to
be g++ specific.
In any case, if the issue is related to PCH on alpha-tru64, then we should
disable pch on alpha-tru64, and not Ada.
In general I would object to disabling Ada on alpha-tru64 on these grounds,
this will only give this PR an even lower priority.
Now, I feel that I do not all the information at hand, so more justification
would be needed here to help me understand the issue at hand (and once
I understand the issue better, I'd guess there will be better solutions than
simply disabling Ada).
