Certain COM types require use of these pragmas. GNATCOM is for the time
being GNAT specific, but not necessarily do to these pragmas which happen to
be found on other compilers.

There are defects in the current Aonix compiler that prevent parts of the
GNATCOM binding from working properly with Object Ada. I have heard rumors
from people outside of Aonix that the next version when it will be released
may address some of those issues.

Other NT based compilers I have had access to either do not support the
pragmas and/or use different pointer models that make porting of GNATCOM
difficult.
