Ada doesn't have the explicit parallel loops, but those could probably be put
into a compiler w/ custom pragmas. (pragma dopar (loop_label);) Plus an Ada
compiler should actualy have an eaiser time than a HPF compiler finding
implicitly parallelizable code. But I don't know how amenable gnat would be to
such mucking, given its gcc base.

T.E.D.
