I'll put my +1 on that, too.
Or, if AdaCore is "not in the cheap compiler business", how about just 
plain donations in the SourceForge style of "donate to project". I've 
seen that it's possible to donate to FSF - but I'm not sure an FSF 
donation could be redirected specifically to AdaCore stuff.
