If with the FSF tree, on a system with an installed GNAT in /usr/bin,
you type the innocent "configure", "make bootstrap" and "make install",
you can get the system into an inconsistent state requiring $(ADAC)
to dig you out.
The problem is that by default make builds and installs gnat but not
"gnatlib_and_tools" from the gcc/ada subdirectory.
Right. You do need to do that.
My solution, using "ADAC=/usr/bin/gcc", to atleast bootstrap the ada
front-end, then manually build "gnatlib_and_tools" and install them.
But for some reason, I still had to install "gnatmake" manually!
I'm not sure sure I understand how that helped, but why wouldn't simply
using CC=/usr/bin/gcc have worked just as well?
