It is apparently both possible and feasible, since (I understand)
GNAT does it. However, as you noted, it is not in Annex B, so it
is not a standard item. It is vendor-dependent.
(There wasn't an ISO standard for C++ when Ada95 was standardized.
It would have been problematic to define a standard interface to an
unstandardized language.)
