<<The Ada.Interfaces package that comes with ObjectAda 7.1.1 for windows/Intel
contains *no* floating-point types whatsoever. (It is also quite different
that the verion they printed out in Annex M of their docs. In particular the
16 and 8 bit integers don't appear to exist in the actual package spec.)
So are you saying I need to report this as a bug? It would be my 3rd report in
a month (1st this month, though).

The annex B requirements are perfectly clear, if Interfaces has no
floating-point types, this is valid only if the hardware does not
support floating-point at all. So this is most certainly a bug.
