At least the TLD Ada 83 cross-compiler from Sun Solaris to
MIL-STD-1750A. TLD states that this compiler, the code it generates
and the RTS work correctly across Y2K. I have used this compiler
in the ENVISAT project for the European Space Agency. ENVISAT
launch date was originally late 1999, I believe it has now moved
to the following year...

I would expect most Ada compilers and RTSs to be Y2K-compliant, in
part because the problem is brought out by the Ada.Calendar type
declaration you quoted.
