You can only put procedures which are declared immediately within the
declarative part of a compilation unit into a separate file.
(LRM 95 10.1.3(13)).

20,000 LOC is quite a large program. If it has all the procedures declared
immediately within the main program declarative part that would be quite an
un-Ada way to have structured the code.

Is it really written like that?
