Yes, I am sorry about that.  I just found the naming configuration pragmas
for GNAT so I will try to add a gnat.adc file in a future release.  If that
does not work I will look into renaming all the files in the sourceforge cvs
tree.

It would be possible to merge the two, but I didn't want to repeat all the
work accomplished in the thin binding.  Anyway the thick binding abstracts
most of SDL's functionality and hides a lot of details.  If someone wants to
use functionality that isn't supported by the thick they can write a new
child package in the thick binding and leverage the work done in the thin
binding.

Thank you!  I appreciate your effort.
