It has PDFs.

The directory has gzipped "Mach-O executable ppc" documents instead of
Ada 95 files (so implies my GNU Cygwin 'file.exe' program).
It might not be the latest and so lack the 'UMASS' extensions.

There seems to be a merged edited version of the Yacc Ada parser in this
 file (also Adgoop was updated):

   http://www.ijs.co.nz/code/ada95_adagoop_parser.zip

AYacc would have user's Ada code be inside of a case statement inside of
a loop statement. 
Adagoop would instead create Ada code that creates a tree on the heap
having nodes that are tagged records, (one for each main Yacc entry).
