Sometimes you have Ada code which is called from a non-Ada environment;
for example, an interrupt handler, or a callback.
If you are using GNAT, then unless you place quite severe restrictions
on what the Ada code (and anything it calls) does, you have to link the
current thread environment to the GNAT runtime, using
GNAT.Register_Thread (on VxWorks 5.5, for instance, this sets up the
necessary link in the Task Control Block).
Do other compilers have/need similar features?
