On the topic of Ada parsers, I recently released WisiToken (http://stephe-leake.org/ada/wisitoken.html), which is a parser generator for generalized LR parsers with error correction. An Ada grammar for it is in the Emacs Ada mode package http://www.nongnu.org/ada-mode/.
WisiToken is specifically designed to handle the syntax typically encountered IDE indentation. It would be interesting to compare its error-handling ability to ANTLR; I could not find much about ANTLR error handling on the web.
WisiToken parsers generate an AST, and provides simple AST traversal; I'd be interested in what additional features people would like in that area.
WisiToken grammar files are currently BNF with some declarations; I'm working on adding support for EBNF features like repeating and optional tokens (by translating them to BNF), with the goal of being able to read the published Java and Python grammars.
