The SPARK toolset supports a subset of Ada that it can reason about. As
the SPARK toolset has become more capable (ie, "we" have discovered ways
of programming the machine to reason about more of Ada), so the
supported subset has got larger to match.

As an example, I'm pretty sure SPARK doesn't handle generics; so that
rules out the Container library.
