I suspect you're using GNAT CE 2018.

I've tried this with FSF GCC 4.8..9 and GNAT GPL 2015..2017 and all give
the result you prefer. Only CE 2018 shows this bad result.

The executables (macOS) are all ~10 MB except for CE 2018, which is 30
MB.

Following Emmanuel's remarks, I wonder whether what's happened is that
the CE 2018 gnatpp is in fact using the libadalang version? Bearing in
mind that the working GCC 9 version is built with ASIS CE 2018!
