   --  Given a unit name stored in Name_Buffer with length in Name_Len,
   --  returns True if this is the name of a predefined unit or a child of
   --  a predefined unit (including the obsolescent renamings). This is used
   --  in the preference selection (see Better_Choice in body of Binde).

   function Is_Internal_Unit return Boolean;
   --  Given a unit name stored in Name_Buffer with length in Name_Len,
   --  returns True if this is the name of an internal unit or a child of
   --  an internal. Similar in usage to Is_Predefined_Unit.

   --  Note: the following functions duplicate functionality in Uname, but
   --  we want to avoid bringing Uname into the binder since it generates
   --  to many unnecessary dependencies, and makes the binder too large.

   function Uname_Less (U1, U2 : Unit_Name_Type) return Boolean;
   --  Determines if the unit name U1 is alphabetically before U2

   procedure Write_Unit_Name (U : Unit_Name_Type);
   --  Output unit name with (body) or (spec) after as required. On return
   --  Name_Len is set to the number of characters which were output.
