Yes, but it almost certainly won't compile the DEC Ada pragmas that do all the
interesting work around being a VMS compiler (pass-by-descriptor for example)
nor will it necessarily be capable of compiling the same range of
representation clauses, nor ...

It will require quite a lot of work for GNAT to become a DEC Ada substitute.
