Pointers to some illustrative examples? GNAT sources work.
Do you think in the cases that you needed subprogram parameters that
the majority of cases wouldn't be handled by the current feature set
plus Bod Duff's limited acces to subprogram types?
Its still useful, even if you need an unsafe feature, to be able to handle
most cases safely.
