I pointed out that sections which are claimed to provide
a reason for certain recompilations in fact do not. I don't
know why you consider that to be a red herring. The section
which talks about recompiling dependents when a unit is
compiled is 10.1.4(7), and that is an implementation
permission, not a requirement.

Section I.3, listing the four main user needs, includes
the cost of recompilation as a factor in two of them,
programming by extension and program libraries.

I have posted this before -
<http://archive.adaic.com/docs/flyers/95fast.html>
"Say good-bye to the days of multiple-day
recompilation of Ada 83 software."
This is from a page extolling the virtues of Ada.
I don't know why I should be accused of trolling when it
seems to me that the Ada community was well aware of the
issues surrounding lengthy recompilations and proclaimed
Ada 95 as a soultion.
