GNAT build with external compiler fails

[anddam (Andrea D'Amore)]

gnat-gcc +macada fails to build even if ​macada's 4.3 compiler for PPC is installed.

I'm attaching a small part of the very long output, the most significative part is the expliti bug note that asks for feedback, has this ever be experienced?

Can I workaround this? I'm using compiler from macada.org as bootstrap to build macports'.

Hello,

Sorry to say but I don't support PowerPC. I don't have the Hardware so I can't.

What I can do is to suggest you do what the Error message says: "Please submit a bug report; see ​http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs.html.". Because this is clearly a compiler bug which needs to be fixed by the compiler vendor.

Regards

Martin

PS: But what I will do it upgrade to GCC 4.4
