The function Image_Should_Call_Put_Image in the Ada runtime library has been renamed to Image_Must_Call_Put_Image. This change reflects the function’s actual behavior, as there is no flexibility in whether it needs to be called. The renaming affects several files that reference the function, including exp_put_image.ads, exp_put_image.adb, exp_imgv.adb, and sem_attr.adb.
