Gnat is the Ada compiler.
It's a free software (I believe it's GPL) from Ada Core technlogies
I guess having a package for it would request some changes in the gcc package (mainly adding ada to the language list)

Ok, since noone were answering, I've been working on a package.
It is shamefully copied over gentoo's gnat package, and does not need to modify the gcc package.
I've still got some problems to fix but I think I'm close to a release.

Or even the gnu ada compiler. Oddly enough, last time I checked, gnat needs to be installed to compile the gnu ada compiler, but after it's done gnat is not needed anymore. But, ada is my second most used language, and either one would be great.
May the Schwartz be with you.

yes, as gnat is written in Ada.
So one need to bootstrap it with a binary version to compile it.
Dunno if you already checked for it, but I posted in "new packages" twho packages : gnat, that I made bootstrapping over a binary version and gcc2.8, and gcc-ada that is an Ada-enabled version of gcc, that I made once gnat had been installed.
You only need to get gcc-ada, except if you want to compile it for yourself, in this case you should get gnat, compile it, pacman it, then get gcc-ada and compile/pacman it
