1 Ok, found it.
2 Thanks Marius! (for the debug hint)

4 It was indeed forcing gnat-gcc-4.1.1 by asis-gcc-4.1.1 which has
5 =dev-lang/gnat-4.1.1 (this is an "extension" to compiler and has to match it
6 1 for 1, forgot to bump that one :().
7 However, shouldn't --tree have reported the relevant package as requiring this
8 downgrade instead of some other, pretty much arbitrary (from dependants of
9 gnat-gcc)?

20 Sorry, here I meant "for my purposes" by "does not work at all", exactly for
21 the reason you mentioned (but weirdly it was wanting to force
22 virtual/gnat-3.4).

24 Thanks again!
