Jon says

<<Easiest way to know where this is, is to look at what's in
ADA_INCLUDE_PATH.  It will have listed in it, the directory containing
the library stuff.>>

The trouble if you do this is that you will not know what is standard
Ada, and what are routines special to GNAT that are not part of the
language. Better to stick to the standard documentation sources (RM
and the GNAT manual. The one exception is that the GNAT hierarchy
contains routines that are definitely available for use (but are not
standard Ada).

Advising people to look in Ada_Include_Path is not helpful on many 
GNAT systems, because the library will not be in the path (on many
GNAT installations, following standard Unix practice, there is a default
directory for the standard library that is NOT explicitly in the path.
