nasser notes

"(what do you mean it must be Ada83/95 ??) ,  do you mean there
are Ada compiler that will switch to Ada83 mode, or Ada95 mode
by, say, a compiler option of some sort? I dont know if GNAT
does that."

Once again, Robert consults his secret source of information (the
documentation that comes with every distribution of GNAT), and discovers
another carefully hidden option:

-gnat83     Enforce Ada 83 restrictions

it isn't perfect, but it gets the obvious stuff.
