The NLS option is optional, but the buildlink pulled in gettext-lib unconditionally. This caused failures in Tinderbox and pbuld chroot when gettext-lib couldn't be found in those clean environments. The final result is that all Ada programs file to build in those environments. Also removed whitespace from DESC.

The AUX compiler supports several languages: Ada, C, C++, Fortran and
|
|
Objective-C. Since Ada support must be built by an Ada-capable compiler,
|
|
only platforms for which a bootstrap compiler is available can build the
|
|
AUX compiler.
|
|
|
|
The AUX compiler is based on release versions of the Free Software
|
|
Foundation's GNU Compiler Collection. It carries with it the GMGPL license,
|
|
the modified version of the GPL that exempts generic instantiation from
|
|
resulting in a GPL-licensed executable. It also carries the GCC Runtime
|
|
Library Exception, so the resulting binaries have no licensing requirements.
|
|
Binaries produced by the AUX compiler should be legally handled the same as
|
|
binaries produced by any FSF compiler.
|
|
|
|
The AUX GNAT compiler the full Ada-83, Ada-95, Ada-2005 standard and
|
|
provides a partial implementation of Ada-2012. The Ada-2012 reference manual
|
|
was submitted to the International Organization for Standardization (ISO)
|
|
in June 2012.
