Not the program you wanted, just a comment:

I had to do an 8 bit CRC a couple of years ago on a DEC Alpha running
OSF 3.2c & DEC Ada.

 _IF_ you are doing the CRC on a file (as I was), I would advise you
to consider performance. I found (exactly the same algorithm)
implemented in C took an order of magnitude seconds less to execute
than the Ada equivalent.
