This is untrue!  With gnat on windows you simply have to enable polling to
get ATC's to work correctly.  I remember ATC working properly on windows
(with polling) since at least gnat 3.12p.  Incidently, on gnat 3.15p with
the command :
gnatmake -gnatP testtask.adb

you get an executable with the intended behavior.  I am sure that pragma
Polling would also work too.  So I would like to know where in the
documentation it is stated that ATC does not work due to Windows native
threading scheme or why you didn't even bother to compile and test program
with polling on.  It took a whole 30 seconds to do.
