Little update on the issue. The following program was created to
reproduce the problem:

use Ada.Calendar;
with Ada.Text_IO;
use Ada.Text_IO;
with Ada.Calendar.Formatting;
use Ada.Calendar.Formatting;
procedure Delay_Test is

encountered

or

Results vary from Windows flavors and I am not sure also that it is
not related to a particular hardware. So far it is fine on Vista
(after 22 hours) and XP (10 Hours). It failed on Server 2003 after 12
hours see output:
