SGL (Standard Generic Library;-) is an Ada95 implementation done by
Dave R. Musser of RPI and Alexander V. Konstantinou.

Unfortunately it will not compile with gnat-3.12p due to some strange
visibility problems of renamed operators. I tried a few minutes to fix
that, but it appears to be a subtle problem, maybe a GNAT bug
(anyone tried with another Ada95 compiler?). If anyone can fix that
I'm very interested to get that fix and will then post this very fine
library on www.gnuada.org/alt.html
