Yes. We cross-compiled bootstrap and compiled native version using it. It's
original Fedora gcc without any modifications (just added arm to the gnat

It was the long process [2] in qemu with all tests performed. I'm going to
recompile it once more time using Cubieboard and move to documentation step
after.
