Ok. Presumably they'd get an exception, but you'd like all error
checking to be done at compile time; that makes sense.

This is interesting. You'll have problems with instantiating generics
with incomplete program declarations, and probably other things :).
Since you _can_ get the same effect with overloaded subprograms in
current Ada, I think you'll just have to live with that.
