Are you sure that there is "ObjectAda for Linux" ?

If "Object Ada for Linux" is not available, I consider that you should port
your sources to GNAT (or others support Linux) at first, before considering
GUI, although you think that might be painful.
IMHO, you are *happy* because your sources does not include GUI now.
If you change compiler sooner or later, do it *now*, not after you
add GUI.
GUI might add more dependency upon compiler or OS to your sources,
as you understand.
