This is not correct. If the runtime is GPL. Dynamically linking to it
really does not help under the strictest interpretations of the GPL. You
are thinking that some portion of the runtime is LGPL.
It is not. It is GPL with a linking/generics exception (in the case of
old GNAT <=3.15 releases and FSF derived GCC releases) which is actually
slightly more permissive than the LGPL.
The runtime is "GPL" in the case of the Libre/adacore GPL releases.
