<<I own VC 5++ Prof. Edition, this counts as a license, right?

Yes, that counts. Note that this purely a (very annoying, and indeed possibly
dubious) legal requirement. Not a tecnnical one, there is no need at all
for the SDK technically for using the Win32 binding. However, unless you
feel like taking on Microsoft, you need to be aware that this indeed is
a requirement. The install shield installation of GNAT requires you to
read the Microsoft license requirement and agree to it before you can
install the Win32 bindings.
