Here is the exact compilation error message: 

joakimstrandberg$ gprbuild -P amock.gpr 
gcc -c -gnat12 amock-main_application.adb
amock-main_application.adb:170:61: missing "with Ada.Characters;"
gprbuild: *** compilation phase failed

It's not only the package Ada.Characters that the compiler complains about. It does not allow usage of Ada.Text_IO nor Ada.Wide_Text_IO. It seems that any usage of a subprogram in any of the child packages of the Ada package is forbidden in the body of the Amock.Main_Application package. I can't imagine it can be anything but a GNAT compiler bug. I am hoping to be proven wrong and that I've done some obvious mistake.
