I looked shortly at the gnoga sources, you could try to replace

    View.Element_Map.Include ("top", Dock);

with

    View.Element_Map.Include ("top", Dock.all'Unchecked_Access);

P.S. gnoga uses universal access for pointers in containers. I always 
avoided doing this preferring pool-specific access types. So I had to 
deal with the restriction on anonymous access from the beginning. 
Basically in my code I presume that a pointer cannot be obtained either 
from the object or from an anonymous access to the object. Now this hits 
all code which had chosen an easier path.
