retitle 465671 gnat-4.3: sometimes builds gnattools before libgnatprj even though gnattools depends on libgnatprj
severity 465671 important
thanks

The package just built yesterday on i386.  However there was a similar
buld failure on s390 and I observed it myself on my dual-core amd64,
albeit intermittently.

The problem is that the build sometimes builds gnattools before
libgnatprj even though gnattools depends on libgnatprj and the
dependency is explicit in build/Makefile, generated from
src/Makefile.in.

I have not yet been able to reproduce the problem consistently.  An
obvious workaround is to not build in parallel (i.e. with make -j 1)
but GCC is such a large package that parallel builds are desirable.

Downgrading to important because the package has been auto-built
successfully on several architectures already.
