I'm not able to bootstrap Ada already for a rather long time (almost half a year), so I left it out 
for last builds (so C, C++, Fortran,ObjectiveC, ObjectiveC++ and LTO only)

When  I tried 2015-01-06 snapshot (from GCC GIT mirror) got unresolved external references in 
bootstrap second stage due to libstdc++ problem (new std::string implemenation). Submitted bug 
report as that is a generic problem and would happen for all system where wchar.h is not fully 
usable. After trivial patch (many #ifdef _GLIBCXX_USE_WCHAR_T) bootstrap succeeded.

See:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=64553
for datails

About Ada support: as I have already said earlier I'm not not familiar with Ada language well 
enough to fix it in reasonable time. As result it is possible that Ada could be left out unless 
some help will be available (that have temporarily happened already earlier).

I'll will perhaps put packages for testing sometime later
