The patch is an improvement, but it highlights some illegal identifiers.
The correct regexp for an Ada identifier is "[[:alpha:]](_?[^\W_])*".
See this example (in bash):
for i in hög _hög h_ög h__ög h_ö_g hög_ _ hau_og do
    echo $i | egrep "^[[:alpha:]](_?[^\W_])*$"
done


It only matches the allowed identifiers:
hög
h_ög
h_ö_g
hau_og

(no leading, consecutive or trailing '_')

There seems to be a lot of places with a-z in ada-mode.el.
