How to build GNAT Ada 3.14p for Tru64 UNIX 5.1A

Hello,

I am looking for a Ada replacement since DEC Ada 3.4 does not work under
Tru64 UNIX 5.1A.

Posting http://www.ornl.gov/its/archives/mailing-lists/tru64-unix-managers/2002/
03/msg00351.html mentioned several alternative links;

http://www.adaic.org/free/
http://www.rational.com/
http://www.gnat.com/
http://www.adapower.com/links.html
http://www.adahome.com/Resources/Compilers/Free.html

I am trying to build GNAT Ada 3.14p, ftp://cs.nyu.edu/pub/gnat/3.14p,
under Tru64 UNIX 5.1A. I built GNAT Ada 3.10p under Digital UNIX 4.0B
several years ago but 3.14p expects to be built with a more current
version of GNAT Ada. The problem is the latest version of GNAT Ada
needs a recent version of GNAT Ada to build the latest version of GNAT
Ada. For example, version 3.14p source may require 3.13p binary to
build the 3.14p binary. The cs.nyu.edu site has the binary for Solaris
and Redhat, not Tru64 UNIX.

Has anyone built GNAT Ada 3.14p for Tru64 UNIX 5.1A or any version of
Tru64 UNIX? If so, how?
