The LLVM parts of llvm-gcc are written in C++ so a C++ compiler is
needed to build them. The rest of gcc is written in C.
Some linux distributions provide a version of gcc that supports all
three languages (the Ada part often comes as an add-on package to
the rest of gcc). Otherwise it is possible to combine two versions
of gcc, one that supports Ada and C (such as the
