--- Comment #17 from Jeffrey A. Law <law at redhat dot com> ---
Eric, there's an updated patch in c#8 which reportedly fixes the problem by
passing both the precision and storage size of Register_Float_Type.
I'm nowhere near versed enough in Ada to know if Mikael's on the right track
with that patch. It's been sitting there for ~2 years now ;(
The SPARK issues in c#14 is separate and we should probably create a distinct
BZ for that since I believe it completely stands in the way bootstrapping Ada
on platforms without a functional Ada compiler.
If you could help move along these issues, it'd be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jeff
