Hi!

What's the magic incantation to install gnat from 2.1.5/6/7's CDROM 
ports collection?  In hunting around trying to figure out why nothing 
seemed to do what it was supposed to, it looked like the installation 
procedure wanted to go out and dork with the already-installed gcc.  Is 
this correct (in which case I'll just skip the whole idea... ;-{ or does 
the gnat install build it's own modified gcc?

Also, I noticed that the gnat rev is way old and I'd like to know if 
anyone's successfuly installed 3.01 on 2.1.5/6/7?  Possibly Thomas 
Neumann's efforts?

Thanks,

Dave
