Hi,

in my early DOS days I worked with the Logitech Modula-2 compiler. This
tool had a nice feature called postmortem debugging. If a programm
crashes (e.g. due to rangeoverflow, indexunderflow etc.) it produced a
dump file which could be analyzed symbolically. So if a program (with
enabled checkes) failed by some user, he could send this dump file to
the developer and this one then could simple find the location and the
reason by inspecting the call chain and the data. 

Is there a similar way with GNAT or Aonix (e.g. in case of
constraint_error) ?
