Correction: an ada problem in a previous gcc version.
One possibility would be to start the bootstrap with another version of gnat
(e.g gnat 3.15p from ftp.cs.nyu.edu/pub/gnat/3.15p/contrib - I have
not tried it myself, so it may or may not work).
Another possibility as you mentioned is for you to rewrite slightly the
current code as to avoid the bootstrap failure, and once you have
a more reliable gcc 3.4, use it for further bootstraps.
