Ada (95) Quality and Style suggests using at least one space
outside of the quotes for string (") character (') literals, except
where prohibited.

What does that last clause mean?  I've been mulling it over for
a week, and I cannot think of any construct in Ada that prohibits
a space in front of a " or a '

Do they mean "except where prohibited by this guide" ?  A subsequent
paragraph suggests to _never_ put a space before or after an 
apostrophe (') in _any_ context.
