You remind me that I moved from Red Hat 8 to Debian 3.0 "Woody" back
in 2001 precisely because I got frustrated at bugs and their dropping
support for Ada between 7.3 and 8. At the time, Samuel Tardieu was the
maintainer and I still thank him for his excellent work.

Since you do not provide any sources, I cannot even try to reproduce
your problem on Debian. I also do not see any bug report in upstream's
bugzilla database. Maybe you reported the problem to Fedora?
