I verified that if I download the gcc-core snapshot and try a bootstrap,
I get a failure building gnattools. This failure goes away if gnattools
is moved from gcc-core to gcc-ada.
I tested your patch by hand crafting a release source tree, and then
running "gcc_release -r 4.1 tarfiles". All this does is build the
tarfiles. It doesn't touch the cvs repository or the ftp site. I did
this with and without your patch, and verified that the only change was
that gnattools moved from the gcc-core file to the gcc-ada file. I
believe this testing is sufficient.
I checked in the patch.
I have attached the patch I checked in, so it would get archived in the
gcc-patches list.
