Sorry, there is no DEC Ada95 implementation for *any* machine.
DEC elected not to update their compiler technology to Ada 95.
Several vendors (including ACT and Rational) have validated Ada
95 compilers for DEC Unix on the alpha, and there is a DEC
funded port of GNAT from ACT for AXP/VMS, which is designed to
be highly compatible with DEC Ada 83 (that was probably what
you were getting confused by in the above paragraph). The VMS
version of GNAT is also fully validated.
I do not know of any validated Ada 95 compilers for the VAX
currently if that is what you were looking for (I have to
mention this, or Larry will complain again -- maybe he will
anyway :-)
