It does.

No, you only run into this problem when you try to call a routine during the
elaboration of a library unit. E.g., when you call a function as part of
the initial expression of a package variable or when you call any routine
in the begin section of a package body. Note that this is never a problem
with your main code as all library units are guarenteed to be elaborated
before the main routine is called, so any routine called after that time
won't run into this problem.
