ACCVIO : access violation

SAL: gprbuild term for a shared library that automatically runs
<lib-name>init to do elaboration on load.

So, although the binder calls in elaboration for the library components
that are explicitly used, it doesn't do complete elaboration for the
library, and you are open to runtime errors.

It would be if it worked! but I don't see any way
