Hey all.

I've recently leeched Gnat305S for DOS, and installed it using
ginstall, and I've run into a problem.

I'm trying to create an array at an absolute memory location, but
I keep on getting some error with "expect System.Address blah blah"
whenever I try.

Here's what I'm doing:

Some_Array : String(1..4000);
for Some_Array use at 16#bbbbb#;

Well I've tried variations, including trying to declare the
address of type System.Address, but then I get a "universal
integer" error.  I've looked throughout my gnat305 directory
tree for docs on this, but to no avail.

Would someone please tell me the proper way of doing this?
Is System.Address a special type that has fields, or uses some
kind of access procedures in the package to initialize?

Thanks in advance.
