You need to be using the GNAT Project facility.

I wrote a little bit about it at [1] (there must be a beginner-oriented
tutorial somewhere?)

The installed APQ library contains an "apq.gpr", in the place where GNAT
expects to find it, which tells GNAT how to compile against and link
with the software.

Write your own .gpr and include the line
   with "apq";
at the beginning.
