My first exposure was with GNAT 3.04 from June 1996.
I've been using later
versions off-and-on ever since. No version that I've used has generated C
code. Indeed, I'm not sure how the "GNU" part of the "GNU NYU Ada
Translator" would fit in. What part of gcc generates C code for a front
end?
Perhaps it was merely intended to be run under GNU, or become part of the
GNU binutils?
Or GNU tool than the "GNU Compiler Collection"?
