I have tried to use Mixes_Case for al while. Personally I am all in favour
of File_Name := Package_Name.

However in GNAT the special naming features are not fully tested (almost no
one uses them) and indeed bug ridden.

Use Mixes_Case and the compiler recompiles the base packages - which does
not work without "-gnata". Don't waste your time - even with  "-gnata"
System is a special case.

You could name every package with GPS - but eventually the system will run
out of internal storrage.

With Regards

Martin
