In that case I guess there is no gcc-gnat either? :-(
As far as I know, the only artifacts which come out of the gcc src.rpm
are the ones which are shipped.. everything else is removed to make
the build process simpler and less prone to 'oh gcc-gnat enabled
something which made gcc-g++ do X when it should have done Y. [Not
that happens a lot.. but this is meant to be a process where even 1 in
a million problems aren't wanted by enterprise customers]

I have little experience with building GCC, and none at all with
modules or SCLs. I think this would be too big a project for me to
handle in my scarce free time, but if a team would form to build a GCC
with more languages enabled, then maybe I could help to some small
degree.
Me either. This is going to be a learning process !
