As far as I can tell, it seems to be working fine for me, at least on the simple program that I used, but I think that this is because I am using darwin 9.6. I just did a rebuild and a quick sanity check, no issues to report except some annoying warnings that shouldn't be there: (gdb) run `a-except.o' has disappeared; keeping its symbols. `s-except.o' has disappeared; keeping its symbols. `s-traceb.o' has disappeared; keeping its symbols. I was planning on dealing with that sometime this week, and as soon as this is done, we should be able to have a more detailed analysis of the status of this port. Thankfully, these warnings are harmless and are only there because the GNAT runtime has some units compiled with debug info. A typical C program shouldn't trigger them. Now, it looks like it is not working yet on darwin 10.x. From what Paul is saying, it might just be a matter of adding oneself to the procmod group. I don't know how to do that either, but I will ask one of our sysadmins. If we can't make it work, we might have to document a little more accurately the fact that the new darwin port does not work on darwin 10.x (Snow Leopard?) Also, about the warnings that Jack saw and started this discussion, no clue. I am not setup to play on Darwin 10 yet, and I probably will not have time for that before 7.0. -- Joel
