Correction: gcc.exe of GNAT 3.15p does not accept the
-fno-merge-constants option. (I made a mistake reconfiguring
a Slickedit text editor):

   cc1.exe: Invalid option `-fno-merge-constants'

MinGW 3.3.1 is faster and better, and it's gcc.exe accepts
 "-fno-merge-constants".

 "-fmerge-constants   Attempt to merge identical constants (string
   constants and floating point constants) across compilation units."
  [is the default]

It seems that Team-Ada is dying, ie. increasingly messages announce
meetings for people to visit (maybe IBM would pay for air-fares if a
deal could be figured out, eg. opposing Mr Robert Dewar in official
voting sessions):

Tigris allows SVN hosting of Ada projects under the 'personal'
 category. Also they allow websites to be uploaded. Mr Richard allowed
 his website at www.adaworld.com to have a draft at my SVN site.
 I might upload the AdaCore Academic Initiative website adacore.com
 or something. I don't know why Mr Dewar likes pale blue so much. It
 never has been an academic colour.
