Even so, it seems unexpected for it to overwrite the input file .. and copying the casing of the existing file name, rather than lower case, didn't help. > > Also, GNAT does *not* like files with upper-case letters in > > the name at all! > > There are no such restrictions in GNAT.

Well, I guess I was considering the whole galaxy of GNAT utilities -- whatever it is you run when you type C-c C-d (ada-goto-declaration) certainly got confused for us, and the confusion went away when we made the file names all lower-case.
