We also have ppc64le now, I actually bootsrapped GNAT for it earlier in the week. How do we build for that when there is no previous builds of gprbuild, xmlada etc?
I suppose you could cross-compile GPRbuild to get the initial executables. You will need a cross-compiled XMLada to link to of course. I have no experience with cross-compilation myself.
For the time being, it should also be possible to start with older releases of GPRbuild and XMLada, that are built with Gnatmake, and then build the latest GPRbuild with those.
we have gnat for s390x already for few weeks, so would be useful to do all new bootstrapping in one step
