Just to report testing on amd64 of gnat (ADA). I was able to build gprbuild and several test programs. It is a really great thing, as currently ADA is broken on gcc-4.9 due to trampoline usage (it requires wxallowed on some binaries, and gnat binaries doesn't have the wxneeded flag and doesn't put it on newly created binaries). To be clear, the test showed few problems with ada runtime, but it is definitely better than the current situation. Thanks for this work. -- Sebastien Marie
