Ada has System.System_Name provides an implementation-defined indication of
the name of the target, but that often isn't set in any useful way. (Dunno
what GNAT does with it, if anything.)
So I would say that essentially Ada provides no such information. Of course,
individual Ada packages provide some information about the target system
(System.Tick which gives info about Calendar.Time, various functions in
Ada.Directories give info about the file system, etc.)
