Since the bindings are from a different vendor (which also sells Ada compilers),
it's quite possible that the bindings are compiler-specific. In other words,
they may have made some assumptions about calling conventions that don't hold up
with Apex. Possibilities include differences in record layout, pass-by-reference
vs. pass-by-value, etc. These sorts of differences are often easy to compensate
for (e.g. by adding pragma convention(C, <type>); to the record types), but you
have to first identify the actual problem.
If you have a support contract for your Apex compiler and a test case, I'm sure
tech support would be happy to help you out. You'd need to include the relevent
bindings in the test case submitted.
