The quickest fix seems to be to a more recent Emacs. The Ada mode of
22.0.50.1 works nicely in both cases, unless there is some installation
chaos on this machine. The ada-xref.el is marked 
;; Ada Core Technologies's version:   Revision: 1.181

With Emacs 21.4, it seems I had loaded Lisp source code for ada-find-references
from  $Revision: 1.8 $ of ada-xref.el, in /usr/share/emacs/21.4/lisp/progmodes.
However, there appears to be a more recent installation of compiled
ada-mode in a site-lisp directory. Maybe they improve each other.
