That line worked for me. I'm using Emacs 21.4, and ada-mode 3.6-2 in 
Debian. But of course, there are other problems as the new keywords and 
new constructs like interface inheritance, overriding, etc.

Since AdaCore developed GPS they lost interest in ada-mode so I guess 
that a new version for Ada 2005 will only be possible through volunteer 
contribution. A pity that I only know a bit of Emacs Lisp... but 
probably will try to hack ada-mode if no one else do it.
