Я вот не уверен. Вот что говорит народ:

The file must be 0444, not 0644.  The reason for this is within GNAT
itself; I think it has to do with portability (with Windows, OpenVMS).
If we would change this for Debian, we would become incompatible with
the other platforms and distributions where GNAT runs.

Одним словом, надо выяснить.
