Why is that a dealbreaker?

The title question is "Current status of Ada development for an Android target".  Since there's no host machine specification, the answer is, "it's been complete and maintained for many years".

What difference does the host machine for a cross-compiler when the executable is the product?  Run GnatDroid in a FreeBSD VM to compile the executable, problem solved.  You just need FreeBSD running long enough to compile the program/library which you then transfer to Android, unless I'm missing something.

Summary: you already have everything you want except your choice of host machines, which shouldn't be a dealbreaker.
