hi again, 
if you read my last post then you know i am 
very new to gnats ada95 compiler.  I installed it last night
and after overcoming some stupidly simple problems i think i have actually
encountered a "real" problem as far as these things go..

in testing simple programs using things like ada.float_text_io and 
ada.integer_text_io i have been unable to compile anything that uses floating 
point values.


I don't understand the error that occurs except to say that my screen is 
spammed to death by comments that say something like..


c:\usr\local\lib\gcc-lib\i386-pc-cygwin32\2.7.2\gnat1.exe frame 15 : sp = 
0x276f360, pc = 0x5bc5b4
end of stack trace,  more stack frames may be present.


the code i used to produce this fault was

with ada.float_text_io;
procedure floattest is
x: float;
begin
x := 3.2 + 4.8;
ada.float_text_io.put (x);
end floattest;

obviously very simple so anyone have any ideas why i can't use the floating 
point?

does it matter that my system is only a 486sx2/66 ?

thanks in advance.
