Cygwin/DJGPP are Windows/MS-DOS ports (respectively) of a comprehensive 
set of GNU packages, including the whole gcc toolchain (that now 
includes Ada). I've not tested if they support all features (say tasks, 
as MS-DOS lacks multitasking support), but they certainly allow 
compilation of conventional, console-based Ada programs, at least.
