From: Javier Miranda <mira...@adacore.com>
Compiling under switch -gnatc, the frontend reports spurious errors
accessing components of class-wide tagged types.
gcc/ada/ChangeLog:
* sem_ch3.adb (Record_Type_Definition): For tagged types, add
the missing decoration to the First_Entity in the corresponding
class-wide type entity.
Tested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, committed on master.
