We have decided in any case to stop creating and distributing GNAT Community binaries, since this was causing too much confusion and misunderstanding wrt the license, so doing in the end more harm than good to the community, which we care very much about.

So in the future, GNAT will be available directly and only from the FSF versions, and Alire will make that easy.

Alire (https://alire.ada.dev/) already provides GCC 10.3 today, see e.g. "alr toolchain --select"

Right, and has never been the case for cross compilers where you already needed a native GNAT to build your ASIS application, and a cross GNAT to generate trees.
