The Ada code in the above example is exactly what is generated by the
binder. We have added comments to more clearly indicate the function
of each part of the generated `Ada_Main` package.

The code is standard Ada in all respects, and can be processed by any
tools that handle Ada. In particular, it is possible to use the debugger
in Ada mode to debug the generated `Ada_Main` package. For example,
suppose that for reasons that you do not understand, your program is crashing
during elaboration of the body of `Ada.Text_IO`. To locate this bug,
you can place a breakpoint on the call:

  .. code-block:: ada

     Ada.Text_Io'Elab_Body;
  
and trace the elaboration routine for this package to find out where
the problem might be (more usually of course you would be debugging
elaboration code in your own application).
