Larry asks
<<Is this problem totally impossible in non-DOS environments, or just less
likely (for those of us who think adding pragmas changes source :-) ?>>
This will happen only if for some reason you need to keep file names
short (DOS is not the only system with limited file name length, there
are restrictions in MacOS, and VMS for example).
As for adding pragmas changing the source, that seems a bit tenuous, the
source files involved are not touched at all. The gnat.adc file of
configuration pragmas should be thought of as being more like default
compiler switches, rather than part of the source (or perhaps you think
compielr switches are also changes to the source???)
