Good for you. In the past - this milleneum - we had crashes
with optimized version several times, in fact so many that
we ran production code with no optimization untilo recently (se below).

Bugs like sum of floating types were calculated wrong, and
bad stacktraces (pointed to row 4345 in a file with 300 rows..)
to many times made us use no optimization.
This was gnat pro on windows and aix (both 32 bits)

However we do use -Os now, since the exe-files are too big for the
linker. (ca 300 Mb)
The problems mentioned above was sent to adacore and they were fixed.
