What about Ada9x? It is much better than C++. Unfortunately the DoD
doesnot promote this language as much as it should. Most real-time systems
and mission critical systems use Ada (e.g. Software for Airplane Flight
Management Systems, Air-Traffic Control Systems etc.)

Perhaps Apple should fund the development of an Ada9x compiler for the
PowerMac and the 68k Mac, just as it funded/supported the porting of Linux
to PowerMacs.
