This sounds dangerous to me. Doesn't it interfere with other
Cygwin compilations? Plus, I wouldn't expect this version of
the compiler to create Cygwin executables (e.g., that would
understand Cygwin paths, etc.). If not, why interfere with
the Cygwin installation at all? >>

It is not all. What it does is to replace the Ada compiler (GNAT) without tasking run-time support with the that does. Every thing else remains the sam.

Sure, it works, too.

I put some thing like Ada compiler or GNAT on the subject. It was quite a while ago. If you search my name, Anh Vo, you may have seen it.
