I get an interesting compiler error when I try to replace this

> -- Gen handles the actual creation of a new task and state.

>            )
>           );
> end;

with

>          (if G.Pegs(P) then null

As you can see, it is simply the transformation between the "proper 
subprogram" form and the expression-function form; something which the 
ARM says is equivalent.

Fully compilable code here:

I was wondering if any of you have hit this issue as well.
