Without looking at your section too hard (but I do agree, mainly), what
about
https://github.com/patricknoffke/ada-mcu/blob/master/gnat-gpl-2015-src.patch#l273

I took care only to import code from FSF GCC; I suspect the "bb" design
is intended to support many MCUs with pure Ada, but as an unfunded
person I found it fairly straightforward to work with FreeRTOS.

For what it's worth, the Arduino Due port of my work has only 4 Ada
source files different from the corresponding STM32F429I (all to do with
interrupts) and 3 to initialize the MCU and set up the clock (aside from
the clock, the MCU is largely self-initializing, which helps).
