Thanks - I've had a look. It seems to be based on an old version of
ada-mode, probably the one that was distributed with emacs 20.2, rather
than the most up-to-date version that was distributed on the mailing
list.

Mmm, there lies a problem - I can't find a way of subscribing to it from
work (Waterlooville) although I subscribed a couple of years ago at
home.  If you want to send messages to the list, I think it's
emacs-ada-mode@inf.enst.fr or something like that. I'll check from home
and email you.
