No, the problem is in the declaration of the A matrix. Or really in the 
difference in their declarations.

The Real_Matrix type is defined in Ada.Numerics.Real_Arrays with Integer 
as the index type:

type Real_Matrix is array (Integer range <>, Integer range <>)
                                                    of Real'Base;

This means that the matrix A, which is constrained by its initial value, 
has the lower index bounds Integer'First, which in the case of 32-bit 
integers is -2147483648, and the upper index bound is Integer'First + 2, 
which is -2147483646. Far out of the range of the indices of B, 1..3.

Change the declaration of A to specify the index ranges:

    A : constant Real_Matrix (1 .. 3, 1 .. 3) :=

Yep. Now B also has the index range Integer'First .. Integer'First + 2.

> Isn't A'RANGE(1) the same as 1 .. 3 and A'RANGE(2) the same as 1 .. 3?

That would be the case, if Real_Matrix were defined with Positive as the 
index range. But not with Integer.
