Thanks for advice.

About Elaboration: Nothing needed to be done when using the right
compiler, which implies an bug in the very early compiler used
mistakenly. The cause of the circularity was that two packages with
cross-dependencies (each others 'Spec with from 'Body) would elaborate
the bodies just after corresponding specs. Newer compiler can postpone
elaboration of bodies. This is a complex OOD model with four (or more)
levels of generics that we will have difficulties to change.

About pragma Pack: I would very much have prefered to stay with rep
specs, but had no influence on the matter.

About pragma Pack: I don't see how the troublesome compiler could not
break (8). Perhaps rep spec should be there anyway as we say in
Sweden: using both belt and suspenders.
