To put it simply, you can't do it the C++ way in Ada because the C++ way
is not The Ada Way. In Ada declarations are always in a clearly
delimited declarative region. In C++, declarations can apparently appear
anywhere. Whether this is a Good Thing is largely a matter of taste.
Maybe you find The Ada Way so distasteful that you will create a version
of GNAT that does it the C++ way. Maybe you'll refuse to use Ada. If
not, you'll accept it and move on.
