What you call "asis-gcc" is a Pro version. We've never pushed any Pro version to FSF-GNAT, and there has never been any guarantee of correspondence between GNAT Pro and FSF-GNAT, so what you are demanding today for ASIS is unreasonable and unnecessary.

So assuming you are asking instead for some FSF version "close to asis-gcc", this version is available in the GCC 10.x branch, and similarly to asis-gcc which is on a long term, low changes branch at AdaCore, GCC 10.x is in the same state today. If you want an executable called "asis-gcc" then make a symbolic link from gcc (10.x) to asis-gcc and you have it.

The same is true for Pro users, no difference here: Pro users need to use GNAT x to compile, and ASIS-GCC y to generate trees. So what you are complaining about isn't different between Pro and community users, and making asis-gcc Pro available won't change that.

So to recap: you are asking for a Community version of "asis-gcc Pro": this version is available, it's GCC 10.x (10.3 being the latest available to date). And yes, it's a different version to generate trees than to compile Ada: the same is true for Pro users and they do not have specific issues with that.
