  This is very educational.  I'd always thought "reasonable" included
an element of "likely to succeed", but I see from my dictionary that
it only has to do with purely theoretical logic.


Please note that no one at ACT claimed this was not a bug, or suggested
going to Microsoft to fix it. This to me clearly IS a bug, and indeed is
fixed in the current version of GNAT (fixed in more than one way actually)./
