Hi,

I installed the gnat-4.8 package and I noticed that all of the executables were 
prefixed with an "e", e.g. egcc, egnat, egnatmake, etc. This introduces some 
awkwardness into building other software. Is there a good reason to have it 
this way? Or, to put it another way, would it break anything or cause problems 
elsewhere if I were to modify the port Makefile so that the program names are 
not prefixed with a leading "e"?

/usr/ports/lang/gcc/4.8/Makefile

Thanks for any guidance, comments, or speculations!
