If you can compile that C code as C++ then we have a translator that can
convert it to Ada95.  Most C code will compile using a C++ compiler. 
When one says Ada I assume that the subject is Ada95 these days.  The
Ada95 produced by our translator might vary from one that produced Ada
from C code; the translation of a struct to an extendible type, for
example.  Those variances would represent the C++ improvements made to
C, so they might be helpful to those who enhance or maintain the Ada
code.

Check out http://home1.gte.net/holmeses/cpp2anf/index.htm for a
description of the translator.  If you're still interested, I would be
happy to provide you with further details, and/or a translation based on
some of your own code.
