If I recall correctly, the Ravenscar profile forbids entries. Or maybe
that was only on tasks?

In any case, this is complaining about the internals of the GNAT
runtime system; note the package name "System.Tasking". It could be
you have some object and/or .ali files hanging around from either "the
old compiler" or "compiling without Pragma (Ravenscar)". Try deleting
_everything_, and recompiling from scratch.
