I don't know of any compiler built from scratch for Ada 95 that uses
DIANA.  There are some Ada 95 compilers that were built by upgrading Ada
83 compilers and that use a modified form of DIANA.

By the way, DIANA is not a very good design for a compiler intermediate
language, in my opinion.

By the way, ASIS meets many of the original goals of DIANA, using a
rather different approach.
