Btw, I don't really understand what's wrong with c:/foo/bar style of
file names that ada-mode needs to mirror the slashes.  Can you
explain?  I'm afraid you will hit lots of problems if you use
backslash-style absolute file names in Emacs.  (That is the reason why
Emacs sets directory-sep-char to `/' in the first place.)
