"Compilers issue informationals about either:

   1) Comments after pragma Page do not have to be printed in
      the source code.

   2) The form feed character isn't in the allowed set of
      characters for Ada source code.

It appears that problem number 1 should go away in
Ada 95 because all pragmas must be printed out in
the source listing.  However, this may cause an extra
form feed.
"

First, there is no change in Ada 95 compared to Ada 83 with respect
to pragma Page.

Second, form feed *is* in the allowed set of characters for Ada
source code, but it is a logical end of line separator, so you
cannot put it in the middle of a comment (since it ends the logical line).
Again, no change from 83 to 95 here.
