I've seen this sort of thing before, though not while compiling outside
the RTS itself.

It may have nothing to do with your problem, but when I was getting a
segfault with -gnatc I was told not to use -gnatc in the runtime[1]! So
now I have it set to compile the file instead of doing a check:

   gprbuild -c -u -f -p -P${gpr_file} ${full_current}

Following other hints like this[2] I've asked AdaCore whether they have
a secret list of things that you shouldn't do in the runtime, without
success. Probably sticking to Ada95 language would help.
