Description: Constraint_Error, range check failed at gnatlink.adb:2195, when called from gnatmake with -D option
The procedure gnatlink assumes that the Linker_Options.Table contains access
values to strings whose 'First index is always 1. This assumption is wrong
for the string returned by function Base_Name.
.
Instead of fixing the assumption in many places, this patch changes the
function Base_Name always to return a string with 'First=1.
.
This looks like an upstream bug but strangely the reporter of this bug
says it does not happen on GCC built from upstream sources. Further
investigation is required to determine whether or not to forward this
bug and patch upstream.
