If you don't see anything in the LRM about it, that usaually means its
compiler/OS dependent. In this case it certianly is. So your question is
completely meaningless w/o knowing your compiler and OS and exactly
what you do to run the program.

If I had to take a wild stab at it, I'd say you are using a compiler
with an IDE (eg: ObjectAda for Windows) and you aren't really running
your program from where you think you are running it.
