The OP might also want to look into gnatelim to see if using it could help
eliminate unusued code.
One could argue that the size of the "Hello, World" program isn't all that
important. The overhead might be large but if most of that overheard is
actually used in a realistically sized program, well, it's not really
overhead in that case.
