Well, the first thing I see is

-  static struct ali__version_ref__tab__TtableBXn___XUP C.808 = {
-  [...] .P_BOUNDS=&{.LB0=0, .UB0=98}};

Which is an Ada front-end bug.  Taking the address of a CONSTRUCTOR
is illegal.  A CONSTRUCTOR is not an lvalue.

Kenner knows about this bug.  He brought up this exact problem with
elaboration functions to me previously and I gave him the same answer
then.  He may well have a fix; who can tell.
