That's odd, but might be a result of using an old version of GNAT. Certainly
I step into generic code all the time, and in fact you can successfully
set breakpoints in generic code as well (i.e. in a specific instance) by
using the properly qualified name of the subprogram.
My suggestion is to try this again with 3.07 when it is available, and
then if you have a specific instance of failure, report it with as much
detail as possible to report@gnat.com.
