G'day everyone

In the process of attempting to change the spitbol library into
something that uses Wide_Wide_String, I've been hitting a brick wall
with the following compile error:

C:\DOCUME~1\ALLUSE~1\DOCUME~1\Projects\BOS>build
Building debug version of dll
gcc -c -g -s -gnatn -gnatQ -gnatf -gnato -g -gnata -gnat05 -I- -gnatA
C:\DOCUME~1\ALLUSE~1\DOCUME~1\Projects\BOS\bos.adb
a-except.ads:327:26: run-time configuration error
a-except.ads:327:26: entity "Ada.Tags.Tag_Table" not defined
compilation abandoned due to previous error
gnatmake: "c:\docume~1\alluse~1\docume~1\projects\bos\bos.adb"
compilation error

gnatbind: Cannot find: bos.ali
gnatlink: debug\bos.ali not found
dlltool: Unable to open base-file: debug\bos.base
gnatlink: debug\bos.ali not found


I've copied g-spitbo.ad? and related files into the project folder and
renamed them to
    Spitbol32.adb
    Spitbol32.ads
    Spitbol32-Patterns.adb
    Spitbol32-Table_VString.ads
    Spitbol32-Table_Integer.ads
    Spitbol32-Table_Boolean.ads
    Spitbol32-Patterns.ads

Then I've referenced them in my project as follows.

with Spitbol32;	use Spitbol32;
with Spitbol32.Patterns; use Spitbol32.Patterns;
with Spitbol32.Table_Boolean; use Spitbol32.Table_Boolean;
with Spitbol32.Table_Integer; use Spitbol32.Table_Integer;
with Spitbol32.Table_VString; use Spitbol32.Table_VString;

At this point all I have are these declarations. I haven't actually
called any of the public functions/procedures as yet.

What's this error about? I can tell that a-except.ads can't see the
Tags_Table type in Ada.Tags, but can't figure what to do about it.

Ideas, anyone?

Kind regards,
Bruce.
