I found PragmARC.Date_Handler the Image function, and am now using it.

For some weird reason, when I compile my program with the latest
mingw32 GNAT compiler, it constantly prints "N = 1" on a separate line
on its own whenever I call the Image function. If I remove the call to
the Image function, the N = 1 goes away. Sometimes I get two, most of
the time I only get one. Any ideas why? This didn't happen with Gnat
3.15p. Not a show stopper, it just irks me that I can't explain this
difference in behaviour. Will continue investigating.

Also with GNAT 3.15 this would work, but it come up with a compiler
error on mingw32:

with Types;
use Types;
use type Byte;

I had to change it to

with Types;
use Types;
use type Types.Byte;

Strange. Not sure which behaviour is correct.

Anyway, I am now running my program compiled with mingw32 and will see
it if still crashes...

When installing mingw32, I found I had to keep GNAT 3.15p installed,
so I can keep with win32ada bindings installed. They appear to work
fine with mingw32. Is there anyway I can install the win32ada bindings
without GNAT 3.15p?

Thanks.
