My real type has 10 digits. Don't know how many bytes. I guessed 4,
but maybe it's 8. Curiously enough a storage size explicitly set by
the expression 5000 * 5000 * Real_Type'Size, theoretically only enough
for the matrix, works! (I would expect more space to be required e.g.
for the vector.)

But in sum I am very happy now with my GNAT GPL 2008 on Windows Vista
Basic configuration :-)
