linux-image-3.10-3-686-pae, but it seems that GNAT cannot get more than 2GB
or so.

I cannot instantiate in a package, because instances come from a library.
They are a part of another project.

Trying to restructure the program, it seems that if a package A with-es B
that inturn does C, then compilation of A will still be influenced by C
even if A does not refer to C.

Separate bodies do not help either. It looks like if a separate body
with-es anything that swings back to the parent body.
