There is no way to do this in Ada 83. A given Ada 83 compiler
may have some implementation dependent kludge, e.g. the
pragma Import with address clause trick. Contact your vendor
here, this is not a language question! At the very least you
have to say exactly what compiler you are using on what machine,
and of course it should be noted that in Ada 95, the solution
is straightforward.
