Not having access to the monotone server from the office, I tried to
apply this patch in-place in my installation of emacs, like so:

--- ada-mode/ada-grammar-wy.el
+++ ada-mode/ada-grammar-wy.el
@@ -1248,10 +1248,11 @@
         (wisi-containing-action 1 2))))
       (parameter_profile_opt
        (())
        ((formal_part )))
       (parameter_specification
+       (())
        ((identifier_list COLON aliased_opt mode_opt null_exclusion_opt 
name COLON_EQUAL expression )
         (wisi-face-action [6 font-lock-type-face]))
        ((identifier_list COLON aliased_opt mode_opt null_exclusion_opt 
name )
         (wisi-face-action [6 font-lock-type-face]))
        ((identifier_list COLON aliased_opt access_definition 
COLON_EQUAL expression ))

but this breaks the parser and indentation engine completely (RET
indents the current line wrongly no matter where you tupe it).  I must
have done something wrong.  Could you send me the patch to the
generated file resulting from your change in the grammar?
