Yes.

Well you certainly couldn't contemplate buying it personally.  Perhaps
one of the readers from Praxis might want to comment.

You can get a restricted version in the back to the SPARK book by John
Barnes (Unfortunately I don't have it to hand, and so can't give the
correct title).  I think it's restricted with respect to size of
software it will analyse,and to the level of analysis it carried out.

Not that I'm aware of.  Now there's an idea for a useful tool someone
could develop as open source........
