Don't think so, a more recent GNAT's output is speeding
up, almost keeping pace. For example, comparing the C and Ada versions
of the terribly recursive program using GCC 4.2 on -march=pentium,
the C advantage shrinks: 6.7s (C) : 7.3s (Ada).

The Debian / AMD listing shows 2.68 : 4.00,
the Gentoo / P4 listing shows 2.63 : 10.61

This says something about the volatility of speed comparisons
(probably documented on site). :-)
