Note that to clarify this specific point: most of the last four monthes
where in stage3, which is why little changes were done in the Ada front-end,
as in other parts of GCC.

Since GCC is in stage1, there have also been several breakage of the Ada
compiler, that have also caused some delays in testing and synchronizing
our changes, since all our changes are also tested against the FSF test
suite of course.

In addition, Eric's changes are definitely part of AdaCore's regular
synchronizations to the FSF tree, and these represent quite a few critical
changes. So your impression that "no changes have been made to the FSF tree by
AdaCore for 3 monthes" is incorrect.

As I said, I am working on  putting many changes at the FSF tree right now,
which should happen within the next few weeks, and for a week or so, since there
are many patches to test and incorporate.

I hope this clarifies things.

Arno
