That's not a very good copy of the RM (I don't know where the pages
originated). A much better one is at http://www.adaic.com/standards/95lrm/html/RM-12-7.html
-- "(10)" means paragraph 10, preceded at the left with a small '10'.

I don't recall exactly why you want to 'use P;'? Personally I wouldn't
even be tempted to do so; many bad experiences with similar usages!
Even discounting compiler errors/bombs, consider:

- what happens if there's another F (with the same profile) visible?
- what happens if you change P so it no longer has an F (with a
matching profile)?
