That's indeed strange. Do we have access to the reference report?
Maybe the Ada testing is not run (eg: missing Ada compiler on
the buildbot), or maybe the Ada compiler there is such that the tests
were failing in the first place, preventing it from detecting
regressions?

In any case, I'm quite happy to be the safety net in this case...
