SciTools' "Understand" (http://www.scitools.com/index.php) product
does block and control flow diagrams, browsing, metrics, and just a
whole lot. It's been my "go to" tool when I've had the need to dig
into a legacy code base, including repositories of upwards of a
million SLOC. They have first class support for Ada, as well as the
other languages they support, and their technical support has been
amongst the best in the business from my experience.

It's probably priced to high for the average one man shop user at
$995, but a trial download (http://www.scitools.com/download) does
include a 2-week evaluation license.
