Having received no comments, I would like to add this changes to
toolchain.eclass
This is less intrusive.
The compiler check that was in place in the original email maybe is
distruptive. It was checking that the used compiler is ada and version
is less or equal.
I saw that some gcc versions can be build with a newer compiler. IIRC
gcc-13 can build gcc-12 but gcc-11 cannot be built with gcc-12
