Why would you expect PolyORB (NB, capitalisation) to meet any Annex D
requirements?

PolyORB is an implementation for Annex E, Distributed Systems, not D,
Real-Time Systems.

And, in any case, most often the motivation for using tasks is to
support I/O, and that is something that FSU threads were precisely the
wrong solution for.

See my note above; FSU support was withdrawn from GNAT in 2005, so it
would be a major task to backport it.
