Without more context I cannot tell for sure but I believe this is a
compiler error in the sense that gnat-4.2 does not implement all the
new (and more permissive) rules in Ada 2005 regarding anonymous access
types. gnat-3.2 implements these rules.

BTW, I've mentioned already that Ubuntu 8.04 has broken support for
Ada. Better stick to Debian.
