Robert apparently misspoke himself here, intending to refer to vendor
extensions beyond those provided for in the language.  GNAT surely has
pragmas and attributes that are not in the Standard.  The important
point is that neither GNAT nor other implementations have other kinds of
extensions.  This fact is one of the many attractions of Ada.
