Another data point.  A (simple) tasking program compiled with Gnat 3.15p
dies under Windows Vista when it tries to activate a second (ie, other
than the environment) task.  The same executable works fine on W2k and
XP.  The same program compiled with ObjectAda works fine.
  I have several old programs that work(ed).  I'd rather recompile with
their original (3.15p) compiler, with a bugfix to the Gnat runtime,
than recompile them with who knows what new bugs with the current Gnat.
Also, do tasking programs compiled with the current Gnat work on Vista
or are they also broken?
