The same code runs on machine out of memory at 1024 MB.
I thought, my system is 64 bit (Mac OS X 10.5), hmm.
With the gcc flag -m64 I get the following error while compiling:

heap.adb:17:04: instantiation error at a-convec.ads:330
heap.adb:17:04: alignment for "Vectort31b" must be at least 8
heap.adb:17:04: instantiation error at a-convec.ads:330
heap.adb:17:04: alignment for "Vectorb36b" must be at least 8


Best regards,
