My advice is to stay completely away from this feature
in the language. It is gratutious nonsense if you ask
me. It consists of one particular, not very well thought
out second level primitive.

Much better to define your own.

Possibly your implementation might do something specially
efficient with this package, it might also do something
specially efficient with simple cases of protected records.
Certainly GNAT just translates this into the corresponding
protected type in a naive way, and we have never seen a
program that used it except an ACVC test or two :-)
