I think you should really run the Ada testsuite once :-)
The problem is not here (of course the newly built compiler is tested) but in
the preparation phase, which uses the host gnatchop and gnatmake to setup
the testing infrastructure. According to the comment in run_all.sh, this is
required. Once this is done, the target gnatmake is used to run the tests.
