Perhaps you have an unfortunate implementation (sounds like it from the
size of the executables).  CLAW (Class Library for Ada and Windows) uses
Ada tasking harmoniously with Windows 95/NT tasking.  In fact the same
source code works with compilers that map 1 task to 1 thread and
compilers that map all Ada tasks to a single Windows thread (much
cheaper task switching, but no overlapped IO on Win95).  Clearly that
took a bit of care, but no contortions.
