Clearly you could go to a lot to trouble to write C which understands
what GLADE does.

I don't know whether ACT make any guarantees about the stability of
the wire format used by their Annex E support between releases; to be
safe you might want to use the same release both ends.

You'd be most unlikely to get interoperability with other Ada
compilers (even if you could find one with Annex A support).
