I have a situation where Gnat and ObjectAda are giving me conflicting
results.

The situation is basicly this

package A is ....

private package A.B is ...

package A.B.C is ...

with A.B.C;

procedure A.Fred is ...

This compiled fine for one developer using ObjectAda. But with Gnat, I
get:
current unit must also be private descendant of "JPATS_Aircraft_Body"
on the with statement.

So what are compilers *supposed* to do in this situation? I can't find
anything helpful in the LRM. Cohen seems to say this is OK. What's the
truth?
