  86    --  This call is needed when instantiating a nested generic whose body
  87    --  is to be found in the body of an instance. Normally we instantiate
  88    --  package bodies only when they appear in the main unit, or when their
  89    --  contents are needed for a nested generic G. If unit U contains several
  90    --  instances I1, I2, etc. and I2 contains a nested generic, then when U
  91    --  appears in the context of some other unit P that contains an instance
  92    --  of G, we compile the body of I2, but not that of I1. However, when we
  93    --  compile U as the main unit, we compile both bodies. This will lead to
  94    --  lead to link-time errors if the compilation of I1 generates public
  95    --  symbols, because those in I2 will receive different names in both
  96    --  cases. This forces us to analyze the body of I1 even when U is not the
  97    --  main unit. We don't want this additional mechanism to generate an error
  98    --  when the body of the generic for I1 is not present, and this is the
