It is a long time since I visited this news group but I found an article on
software quality that will probably have all Ada buffs say: "yeah, tis to
avoid all these fault types that Ada was designed the way it is!"

To see what manual labour one has to go through in order to improve C-code
quality, read the "A Software Fault Prevention Approach in Coding and Root
Cause Analysis" article in Bell Labs Technical Journal, 
http://www.lucent.com/ideas2/perspectives/bltj.

It should prove interesting reading for Ada advocates ;)
