Thanks to an idea by Bill Hoffman (a most helpful CMake guru on the CMake
mailing list), I now have a working add_executable for the Ada language.
There are some constraints on its use, but fundamentally it works (see the
revised examples/ada/CMakeLists.txt which is much simpler than the previous
custom rule).

Note, there was a period of about two hours this morning when
-DENABLE_ada=ON gave cmake errors for the CVS version of PLplot, but all
should be well now.
