There is still a bit missing. Aidan Skinner has been chipping away at the problem of getting GNAT's code up to current standards.

I find this surprising and beg detail.
I don't.  The code, for 5 years has been sitting, unrevewed, on a branch.

What is the issue about GNAT's code?
The same issues as with any submition:

- It needs to be brought up to current coding standards. The original code was written something nothing like the GNU standard.

- any invasive change needs to be individually presented for peer review

Having the code sit on a branch for 5 years doesn't in some way excuse the need to do this.
