Can you you provide "gnatlink -v -v" output?  It would be nice to have
the actual linker invocation, to see what's really going on.

As a workaround, you could specify the linker options on the gnatmake
command line, using the "-largs" option.

 Hello

This doesn't help. 
The same problem occurs. 
I put the pragma linker_options in the sample code to simplify the command
line.

The problem occurs on every gcc 3.3 or 3.4 for Mingw I tried.
You can try with current HEAD
You can also use the experimental gnatgcc-3.3-exp-20021006 available at
http://prdownloads.sf.net/mingw
It gives

Replacing pragma Linker_Options line with

   pragma Link_With ("-Xlinker --stack=0x80000");

the testcase compiles with gcc-3.3 (release) mingw build.

The bug is still present on gcc version 3.4 20030825 (experimental) with mingw32

This patch _avoids_ the bug but I suspect it is not really the correct fix:

Danny say this still exists on the mainline (there is even a workaround in this bug now).

If there's still a bug, it is in mingw, not in GNAT or GCC (I used
a combination of multiple -wl,--stack option under windows with
no trouble), so I am closing this PR.

Subject: RE:  [Ada] cannot link with tasks and pragma Linker_Options ("-Wl,--stack=0x80000");  

This is not surprising there is no trouble, because a patch was applied, to
prevent crash at compile time. 
Actually, there is no crash, but given option has no effect, so the problem
is still there. 
The author of the patch didn't close the PR 
See comment #5 from Danny Smith 

I heard once that the problem could be due to the way Gnat handle the order
of options. 
Anybody knows what is the correct explanation, and where is the problem,
GCC, GNAT or MinGW ?
