You should try GtkAda 2.8.1 not just HEAD from the CVS archive - The GNU Ada 
Project [1] has got a copy [2]. We also got binaries for some Linux based 
systems.

If rpm is new to you we also got a script [3] to grab GtkAda 2.8.1 right from 
the cvs archive.

If your Linux is not the newest you need to update your Gtk toolchain as well.

But then you might run into automake trouble - at least I did.
