Not quite: What happens is that the GNAT runtime maintains an array
of Ada_Task_Control_Block. The ada-tasks module reads this array
to build the list of tasks, and display the status information for
each task. We then try to use the thread module to do the task
switching.

(We realize the code is a bit horrible, that's why we are trying to
clean it up a bit. The question I asked was in fact for one of these
cleanups. I can send my latest WIP version if yo are interested in
the current state of this file).

Does this answer your question?
