Your university should have been able to get a particularly good price
for that DEC Ada license, but home hobbyists can now get it for free.

But no version of DEC Ada provides Ada95.  GNAT provides Ada95, but not
on VAX.  Since they aimed it particularly at those who had been using
DEC Ada, they support the same set of pragmas for accessing VMS features.
