    My colleagues and me used tasks in Ada with no headache. Never used
typically task-related primitives for synchronization though: we used
pipes instead. A task may be declared as automatic, or created with the
"new" instruction, like in C++. When automatic, it is created when the
function is called and the function waits for its termination before
returning.
