Lets look at what happens here.  The ada subdirectory in gcc was removed so the
toplevel configure did not know those libraries/programs are only to build when
ada is enabled.

The same goes for when removing the c++ subdirectory in gcc and libstdc++ is
still being built.
Likewise for libgfortran and the fortran subdirectory.

Ada is no different in this respect, in fact it just shows up more because more
people remove the subdirectory and not thinking about the toplevel directories
than say C++ or Java or Fortran.
