[gvd-devel] Problems compiling GVD on Linux

Indeed, the Makefile should have a way to specify the compiler to use (or in
fact we could use "gnatmake -c" directly.
Note that GNAT.Expect is now integrated into the main GNAT technology, so we
won't really need a makefile there anymore in the near future
