Ah, that is a problem. It takes 5.5 GB peak on my machine.

I can't attach it here 57 MB exceeds the savannah mail handler limit.

I've posted it on the savannah downloads page:
https://download.savannah.nongnu.org/releases/ada-mode/ . But it will
take up to 48 hours to actually be available, even though the web page
lists it - before that, the file you download is actually html saying
"not found".

Hmm. I should have added a version to the file name. Next time ...
