Well it does work, it does EXACTLY what you have asked it to do
and what I would expect it to do.

To answer your question, I have to guess what misconception is
causing you to expect the wrong thing, or perhaps to guess what
compiler you are using that does something wrong with it.

When you make a bug report *anywhere* ALWAYS say exactly what
you saw, and why you think it is wrong, or why it is not what
you expect. Otherwise we are playing guessing games.

And most likely the misconception is nothing to do with
being "stupid", but rather with either misunderstanding some
Ada concept, or not noticing an obvious bug. We can help with
either problem, but we are not mind readers :-)
