I, for one, am waiting rather anxiously the outcome of Martin's good  
efforts so that I can properly support my Ada binding to the PLplot  
package (as well as conduct my ordinary work). As a user, I don't  
care how the compiler comes into existence, just that I have an Ada  
2005 compiler (4.3+) that runs on PPC with OS X 10.5.x.
