Trying to understand overloading rules I wrote a following test.
I would like to see what error compiler reported.
But it didn't report any error. I tried with 3.13p and 3.14p
for Windows.
Then I setup ObjectAda to tried with it. ObjectAda
reported "Ambiguous assignment".
Finally I removed Dummy parameter from function declaration
and gnat crashed with message "GNAT BUG DETECTED"

Here is the test:
------ test.adb
with Ada.Text_IO;

procedure Test is

   type Int_A is new Integer;
   type Int_B is new Integer;

   type Int_A_Ptr is access all Int_A;
   type Int_B_Ptr is access all Int_B;

   function X (Dummy : Integer) return Int_A_Ptr is
   begin
      Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line ("First interpretation");
      return null;
   end X;

   function X (Dummy : Integer) return Int_B_Ptr is
   begin
      Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line ("Second interpretation");
      return null;
   end X;
begin
   X (1).all := 1;  -- Ambiguous assignment
end Test;
