Hi Jerry and Emile:

What versions of Ada and CMake are you using for your tests?  Also, please
indicate if your platform is 64 bit or 32 bit.

I run ctest (to be replaced by "make test_noninteractive" for future
releases) as part of my release testing.  Therefore, I am virtually positive
5.9.5 tested fine for me with the Debian Lenny version of Ada (gnat-4.3,
version 4.3.2-1.1) and CMake-2.6.4 on my 64-bit platform. I am in the middle
of something else at the moment, but I will try to double-check that again
within the next few days.

It would be good to find the source of this 5.9.5 issue with Ada if at all
possible so that we don't have this problem coming back to haunt us again.
It's possible, for example, that Jerry's post-5.9.5 changes to Ada
inadvertently fixed up some 32-bit issue or version-dependent issue with Ada
or CMake. Therefore, Jerry might inadvertently regenerate the problem again
(for certain Ada or CMake versions) with some future change unless we figure
this out.
