Sir:

We did a search a couple years ago when we had a such a need
and could not found any public source.  We ended up using
the C source code from the un*x world, and running it
through a C to Ada translator, then cleaning up the
resultant mess.  It worked fine for our purposes
(compressing some boot code into non-volatile memory, and
transferring compressed downloadable images when upgrading
embedded software), but perhaps you'll have better luck
finding a clean port.
