I seem to remember that Martin Dowie and I had some input into this
practical but warty solution! (or "hack", I suppose)

Was there some reason why we don't have - for example -

   protected type P is
      --  publicly visible subprograms
   end P with private;

and the private part of P declared in the private part of the package?

   protected type P is
      --  publicly visible subprograms
   private
      --  etc, as now
   end P;
