Non-Ada issue: There is no such thing as Pentium/VxWorks, unfortunately.
There is an Intel3(or4)86/VxWorks target, which may be used on Pentiums
(although it will run *slower* unless you change the caching behavior!). But
if you use that on a Pentium it will not generated Pentium optimized code.

"Black and White software" ( http://www.blackwhite.com ) makes UIM/Ada, a
Motif GUI builder that generates Ada code (like Aonix's TeleUSE). I'd
definitely throw in anyone who makes a GUI builder.
