I jumped into this thread a little late. But it looked like you said
this in a context where to were talking about extra copying happening on
return from a function...

You can most certainly do something analogous in Ada95:
package Line_Vectors is new Vectors (Unbounded_String);
procedure Read_File_Lines
(Input_Stream : in out Input_Stream_Type; -- whatever that is
Line_Vector : in out Line_Vectors.Vector_Type);
Now, assuming that Vector_Type is either limited or tagged (or both),
you are guaranteed that it will be passed by reference, not by copy.
