Doing things with the same file from different tasks without
synchronization is of course erroneous. It is not a
"limitation" for Ada compilers to do X for erroneous
executions (and this is true for all possible X), so you
should NOT expect to find this particular "limitation"
in the documentation, and if this is what you are doing,
then all bets are off!
