Hello.

Are there any free tools for checking Ada against external
formal specifications (perhaps written in Z or some other
language) or annotations?

I see there used to be one called Anna but the site hosted
on stanford.edu seems to have vanished.

I'm not counting SPARK as a free tool (regardless, the SPARK
binaries crash on my copy of debian and don't work at all on
my actual development platform (FreeBSD)).
