ARRRG!
You are absolutely right, of course.
Honestly, though. I'm pretty sure this restriction existed. If it
wasn't Text_IO (which it couldn't have been) then it must have been
the attribute. I'm about 2,000 miles away from the closest documentation
set for that compiler that I know about, so the more I try to
elaborate on this, the more likely I am to say something completly
wrong.
(I sure hope someone with access to an Alsys 68K SMART manual looks
this up, before I start saying it was in SMART's tasking or garbage
collection code).
