gnat-glade itself compiles (there is a binary package in Debian
testing) but if you try to compile your own distributed programs with
it, you get compiler errors due to version mismatches between compiler
(gnat-4.3), run-time library (libgna-4.3) and libgarlic-dev. These
mismatches are detected by means of the .ali files.

The state of PolyORB is that both PolyORB itself and the distributed
program compile fine, but then the distributed program gives errors at
run time.
