I looked into this last July.  I got the converter going and I got the
compiler running.  My final note:

Example:

program shell(afile, output);
var
   afile: text;
begin
   rewrite(afile);
   writeln(afile, 'shell output');
end.

This produces a file called 'afile' with contents 'shell output'.  It
compiles with FPC and translates to c and compiles with p2c.  Ada
can't handle it.  I suspect there is a way to do it but could not find
the documentation.
