A bunch of failed acats tests for gcc-4.0.2 using gnu as and gnu ld from binutils-2.16.1, see: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2005-10/msg00531.html
acats.log shows for example: splitting /SCRATCH/gcc-build/IRIX64/mips-sgi-irix6.5/gcc-4.0.2/gcc-4.0.2/gcc/testsuite/ada/acats/tests/a/a83a02b.ada into: a83a02b.adb BUILD a83a02b.adb gnatmake --GCC="/SCRATCH/gcc-build/IRIX64/mips-sgi-irix6.5/gcc-4.0.2/gcc-4.0.2/gcc/xgcc -B/SCRATCH/gcc-build/IRIX64/mips-sgi-irix6.5/gcc-4.0.2/gcc-4.0.2/gcc/" -gnatws -O2 -I/SCRATCH/gcc-build/IRIX64/mips-sgi-irix6.5/gcc-4.0.2/gcc-4.0.2/gcc/testsuite/ada/acats/support a83a02b.adb -largs --GCC="/SCRATCH/gcc-build/IRIX64/mips-sgi-irix6.5/gcc-4.0.2/gcc-4.0.2/gcc/xgcc -B/SCRATCH/gcc-build/IRIX64/mips-sgi-irix6.5/gcc-4.0.2/gcc-4.0.2/gcc/" /SCRATCH/gcc-build/IRIX64/mips-sgi-irix6.5/gcc-4.0.2/gcc-4.0.2/gcc/xgcc -c -B/SCRATCH/gcc-build/IRIX64/mips-sgi-irix6.5/gcc-4.0.2/gcc-4.0.2/gcc/ -gnatws -O2 -I/SCRATCH/gcc-build/IRIX64/mips-sgi-irix6.5/gcc-4.0.2/gcc-4.0.2/gcc/testsuite/ada/acats/support a83a02b.adb gnatbind -aO./ -I/SCRATCH/gcc-build/IRIX64/mips-sgi-irix6.5/gcc-4.0.2/gcc-4.0.2/gcc/testsuite/ada/acats/support -I- -x a83a02b.ali gnatlink a83a02b.ali --GCC=/SCRATCH/gcc-build/IRIX64/mips-sgi-irix6.5/gcc-4.0.2/gcc-4.0.2/gcc/xgcc -B/SCRATCH/gcc-build/IRIX64/mips-sgi-irix6.5/gcc-4.0.2/gcc-4.0.2/gcc/ /SCRATCH/gcc-build/IRIX64/mips-sgi-irix6.5/install/bin/ld:GNAT-a02E52: file format not recognized; treating as linker script /SCRATCH/gcc-build/IRIX64/mips-sgi-irix6.5/install/bin/ld:GNAT-a02E52:2: parse error collect2: ld returned 1 exit status gnatlink: cannot call /SCRATCH/gcc-build/IRIX64/mips-sgi-irix6.5/gcc-4.0.2/gcc-4.0.2/gcc/xgcc gnatmake: *** link failed.

Same thing for at least a85013b and a87b59a. This seems to be a problem with gnu ld 2.16.1.
