You might want to use the -gnatr switch which forces the
use of proper RM style indentation!

Note that Dale was not suggesting that the lack of
indentation per se caused GNAT to detect an internal
inconsistency, but it is certainly the case that if
this bug was triggered by an error in your code, you
have a far better chance of having people help you find
it if you indent your code properly.
