Or change the name of the operation (Empty comes to mind). I would probably use 
a wrapper record:

type Queue_Handle is
    Value : Queues.Set;
end record;

procedure Put (Onto : in out Queue_Handle; Item : in Integer) is
    -- null;
begin -- Put
    Onto.Insert (New_Item => Item);
end Put;

function Is_Empty (Queue : in Queue_Handle) is
    -- null;
begin -- Is_Empty
    return Queue.Value.Is_Empty;
end Is_Empty;
