"The" task entry call? A simple code sample showing the behavior would probably
clear things up. 

I'm guessing that you are talking about either:
   a) Your task isn't accepting rendezvous while IT is doing a "delay". This
      exactly what you told it to do, and is most certainly not a bug.
   b) Your whole system freezes, never to return, whenever a "delay" statement
      is used inside of the "do...end" body of an accept statement. This 
      could be a bug. It could also be that another task takes over and 
      never gives the CPU up.
