           Summary: configure fails to produce ada subdirectory
           Product: gcc
           Version: 3.4
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: other
        AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org
        ReportedBy: bauhaus at futureapps dot de
                CC: gcc-bugs at gcc dot gnu dot org
 GCC build triplet: powerpc-apple-darwin6.6
  GCC host triplet: powerpc-apple-darwin6.6
GCC target triplet: powerpc-apple-darwin6.6

when in the build directory,
after initial configure --enable-languages="c,ada" ...,
% make CC="cc -no-cpp-precomp"
is entered, a "test" command, repeated below, seems to
fail with "too many arguments".
It seems that in this case the ada directory is not created
during further configuration triggered by make.
Apparently this can be "fixed" by setenv ADAC to a driver named just "cc"
(though it looks like Ada files will still be translated by CC, not ADAC)

excerpt from gcc/gcc/configure, section "Find Ada Compiler":

echo "configure:1849: checking for compiler driver that understands Ada" >&5
if eval "test \"`echo '$''{'gcc_cv_prog_adac'+set}'`\" = set"; then

On my machine (Mac OS X 10.2.6) where both gcc and cc understand Ada, configure produces an 
ada subdirectory with 3.4.  Note there is a bug in gcc right now that Ada will not be able to 
bootstrap on powerpc-apple-darwin6.6 but that is filled under another PR, and I have a fix for that.

Had you been using CC="cc -no-cpp-precomp", i.e., two words?
My cc for C and Ada are the same commands too,
but the test command problem might be one of missing
quotes in at least the second comparison of

if test x$GNATBIND != xno && test x$ADAC != xno; then

because if ADAC  is set to $cand, where cand has been set to
${CC} (set as above), then

+ test xcc -no-cpp-precomp '!=' xno
my-configure-test.sh: test: too many arguments

from which results

+ have_gnat=no
