That's an example case where SPARK could be made more widely usable, if =
it  =

could automatically translate some of the constructs it rejects in the  =

terms of the constructs it accept. Another quick example could be  =

named=E2=80=91block=E2=80=91statement, which SPARK does not allow (if my=
 mind is right),  =

but which could be interpreted as a subrprogram defined somewhere and  =

invoked from a single location.
