I didn't say they didn't.  I said only that *in this case* it *may* be
that it's more a matter of compiler optimization than language spec.  I
don't know enough about Ada to be able to comment authoritatively on the
comparison, but I certainly do know that language design can have an
effect (via the requirements it imposes on the implementation).
