Well, the point is that Gigi uses the fields TYPE_MIN/MAX_VALUE in a way
which is (now) incorrect, and this causes wrong optimizations. Of course,
this might be seen as an evolution (the exact semantics weren't as clear
before), but it does not change things.
You can either disable the optimization or fix Gigi. I'd also note that you
already have SRA disabled, which is an optimization which would be *very*
useful to Ada, because of other Gigi bugs.
