BTW,
I wonder ho the kfreebsd people managed to get accepted upstream?
This is typically a good example of patches being accepted too rapidly,
and leading to maintenance issues, see:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=56274
for which nobody is stepping up to fix.
So we might well

I think the majority of work has bee done, Now that patch will change
slightly for every missing feature added to Hurd.
Then it's all good, it's a matter of what I said above.
Don't forget also the part where general changes are done in GNAT which
