     Sigh.  When I said that my sample code was legal in Ada 83, I 
thought I saw some loose wording in the LRM that would allow it, al-
though it appeared that the intent was to discourage it, at the least.  
Now, however, it seems to be illegal in Ada 83 as well, by 3.9(7).

     When I said that it worked in several compilers, I know of at 
least three.  When I said that a healthy body of code exists using the 
"feature", that body includes a large number of packages supplied by an 
Ada compiler vendor!
