Interesting, I'll have a look. I had been thinking to build a regular x-compiler and to use it to cross-compile the ada compiler, but thinking on't, it should be possible to generate it in one canadian (or "cross-native") build.

Incidentally, there's a publicly-accessible 600MHz 512MB ARM box here running arm-linux-gnueabi Debian, on which anyone wanting to do ARM testing/dev is welcome to an account. > > > longer than the bible... Sorry, that was a quote from "The Song of Hakawatha", worth googling if you don't know it and fancy a geeky chuckle. M
