This is a bit worrying. I suspect you may be using one of the compilers
that I built for Snow Leopard? 

Here, the AdaCore 2009 & 2010 compilers (which were built with
--enable-checking=release) behave as Georg reports, whereas my builds,
including GCC 4.5.0 (without --enable-checking=release) behave as you
report.

I don't think

    32.    Free (Ptr);
           1     2
        >>> "" is undefined
        >>> expected private type "System.Tasking.Protected_Objects.Protection"
        >>> found type "System.Tasking.Protected_Objects.Entries.Protection_Entries"
        >>>   ==> in call to "Finalize_Protection" at s-taprob.ads:244

is a sensible set of error messages; the compiler is clearly confused
and the bug box is arguably a better outcome!
