I've got a little project to clean up 4M lines of Ada95.  Code has
been in maintenance for years and is a bit weedy.  First task is to
remove all unused source code (not just comp units).  I can probably
do most of this with some scripts and existing compiler tools, but I
wondered if any one here has experience with any other tools (both
commercial and free) that would help automate this tedious task. 
Subsequent tasks are to clean up the code to make it more maintainable
and code review for latent bugs.  So, I'm also seeking info on other
analysis tools that don't get in your way but actually help this labor
intensive IV&V task.
