Just to forestall any possible confusion: I think Dmitry's example *would* be illegal if it didn't involve a null extension.  But since his original post did involve a null extension, I think the example in his post was legal and GNAT was wrong.  I'm guessing, though, that Dmitry probably started with a non-null type extension and just understandably simplified it too far.
