I'm sorry that it took so long for me to review this patch.

HJ> PR testsuite/12040

I would like something like this to go in, but I don't think this will
have the desired effect, since ada.exp is not always loaded.

Instead I think these procs must be moved elsewhere so they are always
used.

I sent a patch to dejagnu to allow f90 today; so perhaps the result
could be based on that. I can do the work if you like, just let me
know.
