I owe everyone an apology for that.
My only excuse is that there is no Ada compiler installed on either
of the machines I normally use (I do mean to fix that) so I wasn't
_able_ to test before posting.
(Yes, I do have the LRM on-line, but the HTML file names on the
disc are in upper case, and the references are in lower or mixed
case, which means none of the links work, so finding things was
a bit painful.  That one I _have_ fixed now.)

I _was_ using Ada a fair bit last year, and readers will realise
from this that I had never actually _needed_ to emulate C's
'continue', or for that matter, multi-level loop exit.
