Summary: ada support for buildroot
Description:
I have included the option to add --enable-languages=ada when compiling
gcc.
The problem is though, that gcc-4.1.1 needs a patch to compile - namely
the files
s-wchcon.adb and s-wchcon.ads need to be replaced with the SVN versions.
gcc-SVN should compile fine though.
I haven't tried compiling Ada support for older gcc versions.
I got this to compile targetting arm-linux-uclibcgnueabi. However,
building the target compiler supporting ada did not work (Configure chokes
over the wrong gmp.h version).
Any comments?

the issue with the failing target compiler is due to a bug in gcc-4.1.1:
when running, the cross-compiler emits a warning like this:
<built-in>:0: warning: 'const' attribute directive ignored
<built-in>:0: warning: 'nothrow' attribute directive ignored
When configure for gcc-4.1.1-target tests for ada capabilities (line
2145), it checks for creation of conftest.o and makes sure, that the call
did not issue any output. - Well, as output is issued the test fails, even
though the compiler is actually functional.
The gmp.h warning is misleading - it's actually the last error message
produced in config.log, but unrelated to ada language support...
This is fixed in the gcc-4.1.2 release branch. - So full Ada support
should probably wait for that release.

I'm thinking about adding fortran support, so i'll need gmp and mpfr too,
fwiw.
Stubs for the latter two are already in place but not yet activated since
they are incomplete at the moment. Does ada too require gmp?

Ada doesn't need gmp, no. As I said, cross-compiler can be built and works
(more or less)
