What is the state of the Macports Ada compiler, GNAT? I recall a
couple years ago there was a bootstrapping problem since the compiler
is written in Ada. Is it possible to have a 64-bit compiler on OS X
10.5? 10.6?
The 2010 GPL edition from Adacore fixes the linking problem to BLAS
and LAPACK, meaning that there is a linker pragma specific to OS X
that finds those libraries so the user no longer has to do this. Also,
that edition fixes a problem with the non-blocking Get_Immediate (in
the past, it was blocking). Does Macports GNAT also fixe these problems?
Also, does Macports include GPS, GNAT Programming Studio, the Ada-
specific IDE?
