<<I guess then a GNAT question is in order.  How would you go about
producing a partition with GNAT that doesn't have a main subprogram.
If I just give gnatbind packages without a main subprogram, it
complains that there is no main subprogram.  If I specify -n to
indicate that there is no main subprogram, then it doesn't generate a
function called main.  I could use it this way, but I would have to
write my own main that just called adainit.

I guess I'm wondering how 10.2(23) get's addressed.  I suppose that
requiring the user to write a C routine to call adainit could be
called "implementation defined" :-).>>

That's right, although you need to remember to call adafinal as well,
so you need a main program that says

main ()
{adainit(); adafinal():}

And that is now 10.2(23) gets addressed if anyone needs this marginal
feature!
