I'd say getting multilib documented FIRST would be a great help :).
(If this stuff is important, I don't understand how it has
no documentation at all).

The Ada runtime build code is conceptually simple (IIRC), select
the sources from target and flags (using GNU make feature), 
then "copy" and compile it.
