   -- Self --
   ----------

   --  To make Ada tasks and C threads interoperate better, we have
   --  added some functionality to Self.  Suppose a C main program
   --  (with threads) calls an Ada procedure and the Ada procedure
   --  calls the tasking runtime system.  Eventually, a call will be
   --  made to self.  Since the call is not coming from an Ada task,
   --  there will be no corresponding ATCB.

   --  (The entire Ada run-time system may not have been elaborated,
   --  either, but that is a different problem, that we will need to
   --  solve another way.)

   --  What we do in Self is to catch references that do not come
   --  from recognized Ada tasks, and create an ATCB for the calling
   --  thread.

   --  The new ATCB will be "detached" from the normal Ada task
   --  master hierarchy, much like the existing implicitly created
   --  signal-server tasks.

   --  We will also use such points to poll for disappearance of the
   --  threads associated with any implicit ATCBs that we created
   --  earlier, and take the opportunity to recover them.

   --  A nasty problem here is the limitations of the compilation
   --  order dependency, and in particular the GNARL/GNULLI layering.
   --  To initialize an ATCB we need to assume System.Tasking has
   --  been elaborated.
