Now seriously:

Gnat is a very good compiler, I used it for a real time full scale flight simulator for helicopters. Yes, I stepped over compiler problems. We had an AdaCore contract, and in most cases I got a workaround within a few hours or, if needed, a wavefront in one day.

I'd never give up Ada because of a compiler with some bugs. You certainly will find workarounds.
