That's pretty amusing really. The error message says quite
clearly X, and you respond by saying "surely the error
message is not saying X" :-)
Yes, indeed the error message means what it says. The only
problem here is your incredulity :-)

Well perhaps, but really it would serve no purpose except to
confirm that the error message is correct. Perhaps you would
be more willing to believe it if you read it in the RM than
when GNAT tells you clearly :-)
There are various ways to work around this, it is one of the
