Does this allow retrieval of the filename? My reading of the Ada standard
requires one to be able to retrieve the filename if there is a name 
through
which the file can be accessed. As Robert confirmed, there is also code
out there depending on being able to retrieve the filename.

If you can come up with a patch that does fix the problem and allows
the user to obtain the external filename, that would be great.
