The Ada compiler front-end of gcc is itself written in Ada. Consequently, an Ada compiler must be used to build this pkg. In pkgsrc, lang/gcc3-ada is version 3.3 of the gcc Ada compiler; it also requires an Ada compiler to build. This pkg may also be built using lang/gcc3 (which contains Ada). You can download a pre-built Ada compiler, suitable for bootstrapping this package, from: http://www.johnrshannon.com/NetBSD/ix86/ http://www.johnrshannon.com/NetBSD/x86_64/ Support is provided for: Intel Ix86 on NetBSD with native pthread support AMD 64 on NetBSD with native pthread support See comments in Makefile on selecting a bootstrap compiler.
