Great news!
I might take the plunge and get a new MBP now.
Many thanks for this, Simon.

Not so great. Any idea why? Is it a Universal 2 binary?

BTW I took advantage of an iMac in John Lewis last week and verified that
my (x86_64) KDF9 emulator runs perfectly on Apple Silicon under Rosetta 2.

Since I also have an RPi400 ARM version
(which is about the same size as thex86_64 version)
I expect no great problem with Ada on Apple Silicon.

The only problem I had building for the RPi 400 is
that GNAT did not want to do link-time optimization.
