OP wanted to return an allocated object of limited type (which
is when GNAT issues its message). If there is a reason for doing
so (maybe allocating a global library level task at some nested
level), then what can be done without a redesign?

(Is everyone happy with dropping return-by-reference for limited
types? There was a use case for these. I guess it has not
disappeared, whatever difficulties implementers might have
encountered...)
