I assume you're using GNAT. The header of a-disdef.ads in GNAT GPL
2009 on Mac OX X (find this in GPS by selecting Help > GNAT Runtime >
Ada 2005 > Ada > Dispatching > EDF) says

--  This unit is not implemented in typical GNAT implementations that
lie on
--  top of operating systems, because it is infeasible to implement in
such
--  environments.

--  If a target environment provides appropriate support for this
package,
--  then the Unimplemented_Unit pragma should be removed from this
spec and
--  an appropriate body provided.
