I guess I wrongly assumed that it still should work (for now) since
deprecated doesn't usually mean broken. But alas .... BTW, did you
try to build gprbuild? (I didn't.) No pressure, it probably won't
work anyways, just saying, that seems like it should be tested
at least once, even if I'm pessimistic. I presume that you're more
talented at using things like that than I am.

Yes it builds okay with 5.3.0, thankfully! So thanks for the tip. I don't
know why I didn't try that manually.

But is 6.0.0 giving a different problem? My simple workaround for the
"some" problem is to use switch "-gnat05". Does that workaround it
for 6.0.0 also?

Besides, it's an easy manual fix (enum), but presumably using a newer
Unzip_Ada version would be a better overall solution. Maybe I should
email Gautier (although this is probably trivial to him).

DOSBox? QEMU + FreeDOS? I just tested a 5.3.0 build of 0.18, and it runs
fine under old (Lucid Puppy) DOSEMU.
