             Bug #: 53684
           Summary: Cannot raise custom exceptions in configurable runtime
                    mode
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.6.3
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: ada
        AssignedTo: unassigned@gcc.gnu.org
        ReportedBy: laguest@archeia.com


According to the HIE docs,
(http://docs.adacore.com/gnat-hie-docs/html/gnathie_ug_3.html#SEC8) it states
when using a configurable runtime, exceptions declarations are valid.

In an attempt to build a hello world kernel for i386 using FS GNAT 4.6 on
Debian testing, it fails to build.

Compile the test with:

gnatmake -gnat2005 -g -a -x -gnatg -gnatec=./gnat.adc test.adb --RTS=. -cargs
-m32 -march=i386

Results are:

test.adb:5:04: construct not allowed in configurable run-time mode
test.adb:5:04: file a-except.ads not found
test.adb:5:04: entity "Ada.Exceptions.Raise_Exception" not available
gnatmake: "test.adb" compilation error

Expected results:

What is expected is that a-except is not looked for and the exception is caught
using the local handler or redirected to last_chance_handler.

Has been tested with GNAT GPL 2011, same results. Asked a friend with access to
GNAT PRO 7.1, same results again.
