gprbuild is quite capable of building shared libraries on (intel) Mac
OS X with both GCC 4.3.3 and GNAT GPL 2009. So is gnatmake so long as
there are only Ada sources.

Where there is an issue is with locating the shared libraries at run
time. GNAT GPL 2009 gets this right - to an extent - but sometimes
it's easier to just set DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH.

Or to use static libraries!
