Have you read the POSIX binding page on the Ada Programming wikibook
[1]? That's all the information I could gather about the Ada-POSIX
standard. The only implementation of the standard, apart from Florist,
that I found was an incomplete one for Win32 systems by Pascal Obry
[2]. But I've found now that Object Ada for Linux also provides one
[3].
