<<A similar experience occured to me: a +/- 100-package program, which
compiles under another compiler, to be ported to GNAT. The versions were
3.04 for win95 and 3.05 for DOS. The problem was much "delayed" using
GNAT for DOS in DOS mode - maybe it could make the difference in your
case. Try GNAT 3.07, too (current ez2load version).>>


3.04 and 3.05 are significantly out of date. 3.07 is more recent, but still
substantially obsolete. There is no reasonably current port of GNAT for
DOS. If you are doing any serious work it is advisable to shift to one
of the operating systems for which more recent ports are available
(OS/2, NT, Win95, Linux, Solaris, to list just those for the PC).
COmmercial support is available for all five of these platforms. The
current product version is 3.10b, shortly to be superceded by 3.11a.
The current public version for all but Solaris is 3.10p. There is still
no public release for Solaris x86 (one will appear eventually, we just
have not had time to do this before Tri-Ada).
