During the GNU BOF at Usenix last Tuesday (1/22) someone (sorry,
didn't hear his name) said that they were working on a GNU version
of ada.  Have no idea about how far along he is or when it is expected
out, etc.  He was also working on a port of GCC to the ibm 370 so
it sounded like he was very busy.

You might try posting to one of the gnu news groups or to
an ada group (is there one?) and asking if anyone has better/more
info.
