Hmm. I am old (and wise ??) enough in the way of software
to detect a non-sequitur here.

You may be right, but assertion does not make it so,
and I asked for experience. I have been told in private

the Blue Label PowerEmulator by Lismore Software Systems.

Indeed, GNAT on MacOS X is what I really want,
but those who know make clear their view that
creating it is not a simple matter.
