Ever seen this error message before? Seems gnatbind thinks the library
is not up to date. This is a freshly installed GNAT 3.14p. I assumed
it would be just a matter of resetting the date for the files, but
it does not seem to work. Anyone got a trick to fix this problem?
Rebuilding the GNAT library would probably fix it, but that seems to
open up another can of worms.
