Never used those. Perhaps the best source is the documentation (archives
present at specified URL even if not montioned in earlier post) or gcc-help
mailing list if the information is not found in documentation.

Absence of tasking does not cause problem. Trying to specify
that sockets are not supported for system does.

When I tried to specify that sockets are not
supported, I got build errors for libada. I do not have enough time
for fixing that (I do not know Ada well enough either), so the help is
appreciated.
