Geoff Mendal is correct in stating that the use in BOTH places is valid. I
DID know that, although my emphasis on the DON'T in the comment is somewhat
misleading. What I MEANT to convey to the readers is the fact that the "use"
statement does NOT necesarily need to be in the context clause area with the
"with" statement(s). Sorry if any readers were puzzled or in any other way
potentially misinformed in this area.
Fact: The 'use' statement is valid in ANY declarative region and its effect
ranges throughout the scope of that region, assuming, of course, the named
library unit has been 'with'ed in the current compilation unit's context
clause. (See ARM 8.4[3])
