See AI-248 http://www.ada-auth.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/AIs/AI-00248.TXT I
keep hoping that the ARG will stop tinkering with it, but so far I've
been disappointed. But I think it is pretty stable now. But we need to
get compiler implementors to implement it...

(Since it is a child of Ada, you can't do it yourself without some help
from your compiler vendor -- compiling such a package is illegal by
A.2(4).)
