GNAT bug detected when compiling GPS

GNAT bug detected when compiling GPS

[Simon Clubley]

[OS: Redhat Linux 6.2, GNAT: 3.15p, compiled from source using GNAT 3.14p]

I am trying to compile the GPS source kit using GNAT 3.15p and I am getting
the following GNAT bug message. Before I report it to ACT, has anybody else
also had this problem ?

[I know that there's a GPS mailing list, but I would consider this to be a
GNAT problem.]
