Isn't it now time to say "Ada-95", keeping "Ada-9X" to
denote only the standard re-definition process ?

It would be good advertisement to emphasize that 
_The New Ada_ is here and alive. Some people have already
made this change in their mind, but some occurrences
of "9X" still remain.

Regarding Ada 9X, some time ago I edited the GNAT sources to remove
all references to Ada 9X, and replace with Ada 95.

I even changed the name of the pragma Ada_9X to Ada_95 (this pragma is used
to ensure that a unit is compiled in Ada 95 mode, even if it is with'ed by
a unit being compiled in Ada 83 mode).

P.S. there are a number of neat pragmas and attributes in GNAT, for a 
complete list see the source files of sem_prag and sem_attr. One of these
days we will complete the full documentation!
