Yes i was considering Ada but i don't know enough to write this as a
recommendation.

Indeed Ada seems to be one of the few languages still alive and
without such an uncertain future. Also i don't know if the security
features in Ada are not getting into the way when you write an
interpreter where you need a lot of type unsafe casts.

Is it possible to generate native windows applications - without any
cygwin stuff?

For my work, i promised myself to never touch again a language that
does not have a built-in garbage collection, but for low level it
shouldn't matter.
