I don't think it's potentially blocking... Relay_Object.Isr is a
procedure, and as I read 9.5.1, a call to a protected *procedure* is
not a potentially blocking operation unless it's done from the same
protected object.  A call on a protected *entry* would be potentially
blocking.  [This is from the Ada 95 manual.  If this has changed in Ada
0Y, I can't tell because www.adaic.com isn't responding.]
