They work, since you can always call cross-gcc independently, and also
call gnatmake --GCC= to work around this limitation, this we're only talking
about a (desirable) improvement. That's why I'd rather get it right rather
than half baked.

Possibly, although this wouldn't work with --program-suffix.
We don't support it for Ada anyway (see PR ada/864), but it would be nice
to take it into account as well if possible.
