I just installed Emacs 24.1 on Mac OS X Lion, and found that my Ada code
seemed to have been eaten away. For example, if the code said
   "with Foo;"
it would appear as
   "with    ;"

This is to do with colouring in font-lock-mode.

I posted a note about a workround at
http://forward-in-code.blogspot.co.uk/2012/06/where-did-my-constants-go.html.

As to the reason .. another day, perhaps!
