It is not possible to easily port the GNAT Spitbol packages to any Ada 95
compiler which does not support the Unrestricted_Access attribute
(amongst others) or some similar functionality. Of course, since downward 
closures are easily ;-) simulated by generics or objects, someone will  
of course rewrite this in portable Ada 95 to prove me wrong.

This brings up the interesting question, related to the resuscitated
downward funarg thread, of which Ada 95 compilers support
Unrestricted_Access (under any name) or a similar feature. Any vendors
care to comment?
