Sure.

Mmm, at least until we are sure that this version of GNAT is as stable as
the previous one, I would prefer a totally different name (the official
release number will be GNAT 5.0 anyway).

What about gcc-gnat-<date>? Or gcc-gnat-3.1? If everything gets OK, no
problem for moving to your package.

Unfortunately, I am fully booked for next week, then I leave for a 3 weeks
vacation, then two crazy weeks and again one week of vacation. As a
consequence, I will be totally unable to work on GNAT and unresponsive
for the next 7 weeks at least.

Cross compilation needed, not difficult, only tedious.
