On the project I've just started working on, we use a modified version of 
SAIC's X-windows bindings.  The code implements callbacks via Meridian's 
call_in_place pragma.  (Or so I've been told; I haven't yet examined the code.)

However, I also have access to a Sun-3 with Alsys Ada (though it hasn't been 
installed yet.)  As far as I can tell from the Alsys documentation, the 
compiler doesn't support anything analogous to the Meridian pragma, or any 
other way to implement callbacks.  Can someone out there tell me if I'm 
wrong (which I hope is the case)?
