It is missing in the Ada 2012 manual. Ada 2005 AI's are issues with Ada 2005, not issues with earlier language ve= rsions that are corrected in Ada 2005. Or, sometimes, they're issues with = earlier Ada 2005 AI's. In this particular case, an issue with another Ada = 2005 AI resulted in the syntax of extended_return_statement being changed (= it now involves an extended_return_object_declaration), a change that went = into Ada 2012, and something got dropped when making the change even though= the rest of the change got added to Ada 2012. Hope that helps explain thi= ngs. -- Adam
