But Mats seems to be saying that if you do this:

generic
   ...
package GQ is ... end GQ;


with GP;
package body GQ is
  package P is new GP;
...
end GQ;

then you should NOT use an elaborate(_all) pragma on GP.  This would
appear to be in violation of the rule that you're advocating.

So which is it: should the body of GQ above pragma Elaborate_All (GP),
or not?
