If I had known about the bugs before hand, I would have taken some
other approach to avoid the limitations or waited until the bug is
fixed before porting the code over to Ada.

Even if I developed the code, if the bugs were documented somewhere I
could find, then I can verify it was a compiler bug and not a bug in
my code. Normally, suspected compiler bugs are really hidden bugs in
my code... As it is, I couldn't verify this until raising the issue on
this newsgroup, and even here, I had to wait for firm verification
(not that I am complaining).

What other known traps exist?
