There is a number of reasons to stay with 3.15p yet. - There is AFAIK no packaged version of a (free as in GMGPL) post 3.15p Gnat fpr Windows. - Debian has 3.15p and will only switch to Gnat/Gcc in some months. - Changing now would mean, I have to build the compiler / toolchain myself (and that on both platforems) and if things get bad, also a number of libraries. Since experience is, that Gnat never builds out of the box I'd rather forfeit the experience for the time being -- not because I couldn't, but because it would eat up valuable time, probably much more than I have put into debugging and will have to put into writing a workaround.
