This recall me a similar thing I get a little long time ago. I wanted to=
  =

define a String type which I expected to hide the one of Standard, but  =

always failed. I asked about it on a forum after I've checked the  =

reference manual that time. I was thinking visibility rules was so that =
I  =

was allowed to hide something from Standard, did not found anything  =

stating the opposite, and finally never get an answer to this old questi=
on.

I suppose the compiler here is GNAT, like near to every time, but would =
be  =

nice to confirm. Would be interesting to know if this is GNAT specific o=
r  =

not (or else if indeed the reference manual has something saying one  =

cannot hide a declaration of package Standard).

Would be an answer to an old question.

Another variant to test also :

    procedure Test_Game is
       subtype Character is Games.RPG.Dnd.Character;
       C : Character;
       ...
