I can point you to a usenet posting:
http://groups.google.com/groups?q=binding+generator+group:comp.lang.ada+author:dewar&hl=xx-bork&safe=off&rnum=3&selm=7j4lua%242rs%241%40nnrp1.deja.com

I'd paraphrase it, but that always seems to get me in trouble. So I'll quote an
excerpt (Sorry for the confusing header field names. I have my Google set to
Mock-Sweedish. Think Sweedish Chef when you read them.)

As I have noted before, ACT has long term plans to make this
binding generator available, but we do not have any release
data for this product (it is the binding generator that was
used to generate all the SGI C++ bindings that come with the
SGI Ada 95 product).
