You shouldn't put with_clauses inside things! Currently you can easily see
what packages a compilation module depends on, since with_clauses are
right at the start of the file. It would be a really bad idea if it was
possible to, for example, hide an instantiation of an Unchecked_Conversion
somewhere in the package spec.
I agree although that private parts belong in the body of the package.
Linkers should be smarter indeed. Even thinking about the way C programmers
rely on the linker makes me shiver...
