Very cool project! Were you able to build a working 68K GNAT cross-compiler yourself, or did you purchase one from one of the major Ada vendors?

target was x86_64 / linux. just updated the rpm spec file for the gcc build to enable ada. rebuild and install.

so, changed wordsize, processor, operating system... minimal source code impact.
