There goes upward/downward compilations! I guess Digital will have to change
the standard now...
How about FOO_$.ADA to represent the specification and
FOO_.ADA to represent the body?
Have you considered the problem with having procedure MYFOO being compiled
separately inside of FOO_ package. The file would have to be FOO___MYFOO.ADA
(three underscores).
