Why doesn't ADA testsuite use newly built gnatchop/gnatmake?

The fact that the host gnatmake is used for part of the time, and the
target gnatmake is used for the rest of the time, certainly seems like a
bug to me. Is this really so difficult to fix?
It's not a bug.
The first usage is on the host and is running programs to configure files on
the host. The second gnatmake is for the *target*, on which the tests are
to be run. Yes, normally they are both the same because you're not doing
a cross-compilation and cross-test environment, but the scripts do support
that option.
The initial setup is really not part of the tests.
