Although I'm not really an Ada programmer ....

I've not tested Ada under DJGPP since two years ago (GCC 4.9.0) on April 30. The only remark I made then was that the keyword "some" was apparently now reserved in (default) 2012 dialect, hence simple workaround of using "-gnat05" when building Gautier's old 3D Engine.

Andris, thank you heavily for your efforts, as always, but did you test this? You say that "gnatmake did not work", but what did you test with it? Just "hello world" or more complicated tests? Maybe it works fine for you under Windows (XP? Vista?)?

I'm going to have to try again, but yesterday it didn't seem to work for me. Of course, that was under raw FreeDOS (SFNs), so who knows what the problem really is. I guess I need to also try under DOSEMU (since I don't have any 32-bit Windows anymore).

Roughly speaking, it's no longer finding the dependencies properly (e.g. svga.ads), but I'm not sure why. BTW, although this isn't definitive proof that gnatmake itself is totally deprecated, I somehow get that feeling. And in case it wasn't obvious, gprbuild is not included in the DJGPP port. (It is allegedly GPL'd on AdaCore, though, so perhaps FSF hasn't bundled it yet??)

Maybe we should pester Gautier via email to see what he thinks? He's certainly much savvier than I am about GNAT switches, etc.
