I guess not all gnat-4.3 packages are the same because I get results that are different from both Orion's results and Jerry's! It turns out I do have access to gnat-4.3 for Debian testing so I installed that, and x21a runs without problems for me contrary to Orion's result but in agreement with Jerry's result. However, when I look at the second and third pages, the Ada results for the first three of the 6 plots on each page are garbage. (Those plots should agree fairly closely with the last 3 plots on each of those pages.) Jerry, do you confirm those garbage plots for example 21 on your platform? If so, then my guess is when you fix this issue, Orion's issue will also go away. Note, the garbage results for Ada are a separate issue from the reformatting of these Ada plots that should be done in any case to conform to the new C template results for example 21. The other difference I have with both Orion and Jerry for gnat-4.3 is that example 19 (both thick and thin) gives me the following error. raised STORAGE_ERROR : stack overflow (or erroneous memory access) I also saw this same error for my previous gnat-4.1 platform. Andrew, do you see this issue on the various gnat platforms accessible to you or am I the only one seeing it? For those who sail through example 19 without this error, do your Ada results agree exactly with the corresponding C results? Alan __________________________ Alan W.
