Calling a procedure in a protected object is _not_ the same as calling
a "normal" procedure; there are tasking issues involved.

Wrap the protected object call in a "normal" procedure, and use that
as the callback.

Even then, you have to worry about the Ada tasking vs the C tasking.
If you have an Ada main, you are probably ok.
