Well, I believe that I understand why SofCheck does not want their AdaMagic
Ada-to-C compiler to be used too widely. I also can guess why AdaCore does not
provide similar facility in GNAT. I can see some reasons for Green Hills or
(IBM)Rational for not doing that.

What I do not understand is - why Aonix does not have it as a feature of their
ObjectAda compiler.
