From the Ada side, anything less than Ada 2012 will not be considered by potential users, unless they are already drowning in some archaic codebase, in which case they are chained to some compiler anyway. No matter who you talk to, recommending R1000 is a waste of time.

As soon as the play-by-play sports-announcer yells, “scorrrrrrRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRrrr.” for Ada's goal, Maciej declares the game over and takes his soccer ball home, refusing to recognize the point.
Btw, C++ as currently defined •cannot ever• score that point, whereas Ada can bring back R1000 at any time—all we need is $6 million. “Gentlemen, we can rebuild him; we have the technology.” The world's 2nd bionic Ada development environment.

I reiterate: Maciej, btw, which precise version of GNAT are you utilizing?
