Such a tool would be very dependent on what compiler (front end) you are
using, as it would have to have some way of finding out what source file(s)
correspond to any given Ada unit name. So it would really be impossible to
fully answer without knowing what Ada compiler you are using, and on what
platform.

Good idea for a tool, though.
