BTF,

Here are a couple of questions I found as I was searching for "reg" in the LRM?

12.5, Syntax 12-8 (or somewhere in Annex A): Why is only reg_identifier,
and not other variable types, supported in upward name searching?

Section 17.2.3, formatting data to a string: The 4th paragraph and last
paragraph look like they were side-notes from an early proposal, and not
meant to be part of the spec: "Optionally, these system tasks can be
redefined (or additionally defined) as functions that return the number of
characters in the resulting string...". Just my opinion, but the standard
should define these string routines as a system task or a system function,
but not some ambiguous what-ever.
