Yes, but what is wrong with defining all the builtins that the
middle-end _may_ need?
Nothing whatsoever. And indeed it's very valuable to be able to access
*all* the builtins from Ada. I had thought it would be fairly
straightforward to include builtin-types.def and builtin.def, but then
I saw that the former is much more tied to C types than I previously thought
and including it is much harder a task. Though it's one that I do plan
to do.
Things like builtin_expect, the trampolines, etc. should all be
defined in a language independent part of the compiler.
That's basically my point.
For now, I think I'll copy the code from the Fortan front end.
