FWIW, here is an update as I've just got AppletMagic for Linux.
It seems a number of things have been fixed and added.

Running Ada->JVM programs is straightforward so far using
either JDK 1.5 or GCC's gij (the GNU interpreter for Java bytecode).
I.e.,

$ adajava hello.ada
$ java hello
Hello, World!
$

The new things include byte code injections for SofCheck's analysis tools.
So I guess you can use just Ada language properties for program analysis
where you would otherwise be using the new Java @annotations from the
Do-it-Yourself Java language straightening toolkit ;-)
