  81    --  Eventually, a call will be made to self. Since the call is not coming
  82    --  from an Ada task, there will be no corresponding ATCB.
  83 
  84    --  What we do in Self is to catch references that do not come from
  85    --  recognized Ada tasks, and create an ATCB for the calling thread.
