No, by the name used in the pragma. The conventions Ada, Intrinsic,
Fortran, C, and COBOL are defined in the RM, as are the packages
Interfaces.C, Interfaces.COBOL, and Interfaces.Fortran. Compilers are
allowed to add support for other languages, and in the particular case
mentioned above, they would choose one C compiler to correspond to the
convention C, and others could be named Gcc, VisualC, etc. In practice,
the compiler that corresponds to C is the one used to compile the OS.
