The most common reason I have for using tasks is to handle
asynchronous (usually socket) I/O, and it's really useful to be able
to have one task block on a read() while the rest of the program
carries on. So FSU threads are not practical (for us).

I have no idea whether GNAT supports FSU threads *and* Ravenscar --
anyone else?
