I cannot see the point here. You can perfectly interface with C
functions which have the same name than an Ada keyword. You do not
*have to* give the same name than the C function, just use a third
parameter to the pragma Import to give the external name.

In your case, what you could do is:

  function C_Accept (<params>) return Interfaces.C.int;
  pragma Import (C, C_Accept, "accept");

Hope this helps.
