IDSWYM, even though the docs indicate at least _some_ results--I got
nada. I also tried some .h files as input and also got empty spec
files as output.

Oh well--it was worth a shot. As you say, there might be some project-
specific stuff to play with, but it's not worth the effort given the
size of my project. I do frequently take the option of short-term pain
for long-term gain which is why I originally looked at c2ada several
years ago (when it appeared to be rather dormant), and again now. If I
ever do another binding, I'll look at the conversion utility that is
now included with the AdaCore distribution.

Thanks,
