Ada uses Warnings=Errors, which improves code quality a lot but also means  
that a newer compiler - with more warnings - won't allways compiler an  
older compiler.

Well, OP certainly don't want an Ada compiler from the 3.3 branch which is  
quite buggy. Better to use the 4.1.0 which comes with SuSE 10.1 or  
download a ready made rpm-package for SuSE 10.1 from the GNU Ada project  
[1].
