  34 --  This package provides some useful utility subprograms that provide access
  35 --  to source code information known at compile time. These subprograms are
  36 --  intrinsic operations that provide information known to the compiler in
  37 --  a form that can be embedded into the source program for identification
  38 --  and logging purposes. For example, an exception handler can print out
  39 --  the name of the source file in which the exception is handled.

  55    --  current line number. In the event that instantiations are involved,
  56    --  additional suffixes of the same form are appended after the separating
  57    --  string " instantiated at ". The result is considered to be a static
  58    --  string constant.
