Well, there are so many similar replies that I think I will clarify this 
issue.
I'm using -gnat05 option all the time, no matter what.
To be more precise, I'm using this sequence of options:

-gnat05 -gnatv -gnatVa -gnatwe -gnatwa -gnatwd -gnatwh -gnato -gnata 
-gnaty3abcefhiklM100noprux -fstack-check

It just looks like my compiler is half-way Ada2005 and when compiling 
with -gnatv it presents itself as:

GNAT GPL 2005 (20050729)

It lacks many Ada2005 features, not only construction functions for 
limited objects. Some other that I came across are the overriding 
keyword and raise with. There are certainly others as well.
