>idea of synchronized time stamps cannot be expressed in Ada terms.
  I would argue your problem is due to using a Calendar (or Real_Time)
that thinks it's running on a single machine.  Can you replace the library
body with one that goes to a single time source for Ada.Calendar.Clock?
(There's no requirement in the language that a call on Clock be fast ;)
