I've never programmed in Ada before, but it seems interesting. Does the Pico version support tasks?

Tasking is supported by the Ravenscar runtime, which has not been merged upstream yet. https://github.com/AdaCore/bb-runtimes/pull/55

That seems quite comprehensive. Does the Ada support build on the Pico C/C++ SDK or is it something from scratch?

It's mostly from scratch. The linker script and crt0.S are derived from pico-sdk and register definitions are generated from pico-sdk's SVD file. Everything else is Ada.
