After, so I'm not advising anyone to hold their breath!

Indeed the full-language, highly optimising (multi-target, I've now decided)
Ada compiler, complete with CORBA support, SQL module support, ASIS support,
full garbage collection (gentle dig :-) etc., comes only after the nearly
full (draft ISO standard) Prolog interpreter. So we're talking long-term
project here. Nevertheless, a march of thousand miles ...
