<<Well, then I guess these compilers all had a common bug.  Alternatively,
the code was compiled with Elaboration_Check suppressed.  You
could add "pragma Suppress(Elaboration_Check);" to the above code,
and it would probably not raise Program_Error (though it would then be
officially erroneous, per RM95 11.5(26)).>>


Actually, GNAT would still raise Program_Error. This particular case is
easily caught at compile time, and GNAT actually replaces the instantiation
by a "raise Program_Error" statement. There is no runtime check to be
suppressed, so the pragma Suppress has no effect!
