My weekend answer: great thanks for this discussion, and all the ideas 
and links, and I say that for all contributors.

So: next 6 days to read all I can, next 6 months to do the job, and one 
more idea a day in this thread.

I needed intuitions on feasibility. I got them. It seems it is a complex 
project, but not impossible.

I go back with more technical issues as soon as I can.

Before the complete project will be available, everyone can download the 
compiler (www.vmsadaall.org) as it is for VMS Itanium, try it, criticize it.

It is now a (somehow) poor solution.
(I had to have a compiler rebuilt for a port from DEC Ada (alpha) to 
Itanium, and Adacore gave up the support just before the beginning of 
the project. The solution you can get is a rapid rebuild from FSF 
sources. A lot of work has to be done now, for example about packaging, 
and integration of integration tools (like GNAT shop).)

Thanks again,

Gérard Calliet
