Hi,
When recompiling an Ada file (attachements p.ads p.adb) using "-s" option for
gnatmake. The object file is systemtically rebuild even if it is up-to-date and
if even the compiler flags have not changed.
* How to reproduce the bug:
===========================
INPUT FILES:
============
Attached p.ads and p.adb
COMMAND LINE:
=============
Two successive executions of:
gnatmake -s p.adb
EXPECTED BEHAVIOR:
==================
first: gnatmake -s p.adb
gcc -c p.adb
second: gnatmake -s p.adb
<nothing> (object file is up to date, thus it is not recompiled)
ACTUAL BEHAVIOR:
================
first: gnatmake -s p.adb
gcc -c p.adb
second: gnatmake -s p.adb
gcc -c p.adb
Object file is recompiled systematically at each execution
MINI DIAGNOSTIC:
================
If we use the -v flag of gnatmake, we get the following output:
GNATMAKE 4.3.0 20071119 (experimental)
Copyright (C) 1995-2007, Free Software Foundation, Inc.
"p.ali" being checked ...
-> "p.adb" different number of switches
-mmacosx-version-min=10.4
gcc -c p.adb
End of compilation
The command line option '-mmacosx-version-min=10.4' is added automatically
by gcc when calling gnat1.
Passing -v to gcc (gcc -v -c p.adb) gives the following (truncated) output:

There are indeed several options added by gcc to gnat1 (especially
-mmacosx-version-min=10.4 and -mtune=generic). But for some reason, only
-mmacosx-version-min=10.4 causes the problem.
Here is my system configuration:
