    Err, I'd expect it to be the same now, since the configure test
    is for the *host* ada compiler, not the target ada compiler.

No, it's the target.  The mechanism is this:

(1) Build a cross-compiler to the target.
(2) On the host, do "make stage1" and "make gnat-cross".
(3) On the target, bootstrap and install for just C.
(4) On the target, configure to build Ada and run "make" until it
    fails.
(5) Copy .s files make in step (2) to the target and redo "make".

However, my suggestion is just to symlink a gnatgcc to be, e.g., /bin/true.
