It looks like a bug in gnatmake and/or gnatgcc. I've built and
installed all three versions of gnat from ports, and all three versions
install the normative environment library as libgnat.a. It shouldn't be
possible to build too many working programs without correctly linking to
libgnat.a, so I'm curious as to what's going wrong to trigger this error.
