commit r15-179-g4629cd34506416d05cd9ab56879f69b44fe65d2b Author: Bob Duff <d...@adacore.com> Date: Fri Dec 15 16:59:43 2023 -0500 ada: Fix memory leak in 'Image Fix memory leak in 'Image by managing the secondary stack in scopes that call the new Ada 2020 'Image, which calls 'Put_Image and then Get, which returns on the secondary stack. gcc/ada/ * exp_put_image.adb (Build_Image_Call): Call Set_Uses_Sec_Stack on the current scope. We don't do this at all call sites, because there are three; better to do it here.
