I don't see how it ever could have done, but then I ran the GNAT and ACATS
testsuites before I shipped 4.3.2-2 and it seemed to work there. I think the
autoconf test for ada at the toplevel is new, which would explain why we never
saw this before. (I also think the problem might be caused by a lack of
#ifdef IN_RTS around the call to __main that I added in __gnat_initialize,
because just ripping it out altogether causes lots of FAILS. As a result,
4.3.4-1 is going to need at least one more spin before I can release it, alas.)
cheers,
