Look, we're going around in circles here. First of all, I think we all agree
that with some of the early Ada 83 compilers, compiling an specification
would force a recompilation of all dependent units, even if the
specification had not changed since it was last compiled. Certainly the
Alsys ActivAda compilers worked that way. IIRC DEC Ada generally did not
unnecessary recompilations.
Clearly unneeded compile time, or any other form of wasted time, is not
desirable. But the leading Ada 95 compilers, GNAT and ObjectAda, do not
exhibit this behaviour. We're fighting yesterday's battles here.
