actually, only unrecognized pragmas can be ignored as stated in RM 2.8(11).
I certainly wouldn't use a compiler that didn't recognize pragmas such as
Storage_Size, Pure, Elaborate. These and others are clearly defined by the 
language, and must be recognized.

The same goes for pragma Pack. A compiler that does not recognize (and ignores)
such a pragma is not an Ada compiler. If it cannot comply with the packing 
request, fine, but that's an error, and cannot be silently ignored.

(of course, the exception to this is pragma Inline, which is explicitly 
permitted to be ignored RM 6.3.2(6))
