Re: ACATS & dispatching priorities

["Randy Brukardt" <randy@rrsoftware.com>]

Given that 98% of the ACATS tests are older than System.Multiprocessors, 
it's not surprising that they don't use it. On top of which, no tests using 
that package would work on compilers older than Ada 2012 (we still maintain 
Ada 95 and Ada 2005 versions of the test suite, in part so it is isn't a 
GNAT-only endevour).
