If I have understood you right, I don't think you could get away with 
that in Ada 95 using generics.

You could, instead, use an OO approach and have something like:

type Runnable is abstract limited null record;

procedure Run (This : in out Runnable) is abstract;

Users would then inherit from the runnable object, providing 
implementation for the Run procedure.

Then your task specification could be:

task type dummy (Code : access Runnable'Class) is
    entry Run_It;
end;

and in the body you simply call the dispatching procedure

Run (Code.all);

I hope this make sense to your problem.
