Attached is a zip file with three short Ada files in it. They have a similar structure to the problematic example 19 but do not call or link to any PLplot stuff (despite the names of some things looking PLplot-y).

Alan (or someone else with a 64-bit Ada compiler), if you would, please unzip, cd to the directory, and type

gnatmake ./x19a_temp.adb

You should see two warnings but no errors. If it compiles...

It does not compile on Linux.  Here is the error message:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]> gnatmake ./x19a_temp.adb

x19a_temp.adb:2:05: file "type_declaration.ads" not found
gnatmake: "./x19a_temp.adb" compilation error

There is something strange about how case is interpreted by gnatmake on
Linux.  Anyhow, I converted everything (file names and symbols inside the
file) to lower-case type_declaration, and the result compiles.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]> gnatmake x19a_temp.adb
gcc-4.3 -c x19a_temp.adb

I have attached a compressed tarball with the corrected files for this test
case that compiles on Linux (and hopefully MacOSX as well).

We now have a working simple test case that generates the run-time error (at
least on my 64-bit box with gnat version 4.3.1-2).

[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ./x19a_temp

raised STORAGE_ERROR : stack overflow (or erroneous memory access)

Jerry, did the compressed tarball attachment survive your ISP? If so does it
compile and run properly for you?
