Bug #: 54636 Summary: Nested variable record in ADA gives GNAT bug Classification: Unclassified Product: gcc Version: 4.4.5 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: ada AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org ReportedBy: jaime.daw...@gmail.com Created attachment 28228 --> http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=28228 example code showing GNAT BUG DETECTED gcc -v => Using built-in specs.

Adding additional components to the EnDep_T record (ie replacing B=> null; with B=> Dum: Integer) or re-ordering the arrays MAP1 and MAP2, code compiles. Code compiles on older version: gcc 4.3.2 and GNAT 4.3.2
