This sounds dangerous to me. Doesn't it interfere with other
Cygwin compilations? Plus, I wouldn't expect this version of
the compiler to create Cygwin executables (e.g., that would
understand Cygwin paths, etc.). If not, why interfere with
the Cygwin installation at all?

I took the approach recommended at mingw.org and installed it
into C:/MinGW. Then I created a script that would put it in
the beginning of my path when I wanted to use it. You could
do this automatically if you only want the MinGW version.

A search of the mailing list doesn't reveal any messages from
the maintainer containing the word "tasking" both "task" and
"ada". Perhaps the question should be restated with a subject
of "GCC-ADA:" or "Attn: gcc-ada maintainer"?
