Surely you don't want to pass an "instant", because it will be gone just
after you passed it ;-)
Now serioulsy, what I think is the fundamental piece of Ada knowledge
that you're lacking is: packages are not objects. So, you cannot pass
packages to subprograms via parameters. You can of course pass objects
associated with *any* package including your *instance* e.g.
Op (X : Package_Instance.Object)
