It depends on the compiler/linker system, the optimization
and security level choosen: Ada provides a standard set
of run-time checks you can suppress with pragmas or with options.

A linker that is aware of modularity like Janus Ada linker
or Borland Pascal/Delphi linker is able to trim unused
code unlike "old-fashioned" standard linkers for Fortran/C/C++/ASM.

GNAT 3.11 does this trimming with gnatelim tool.
