On Digital UNIX (new name for DEC OSF/1 :-), the Ada tasks are POSIX threads.
Each Ada task is mapped on one thread. Each time a task is created, the Ada
runtime creates one pthread. So, using pthreads with Ada is natural.
If your software is written in Ada, you have to convert the multi-process
structure in multi-task structure (purely Ada, without pthread programming).
There should be no use for explicit calls to pthreads.
