Is this an Ada definition of "global" (as in RM 8.1 (15), I guess)?
That is, are the objects created by the allocators in the nested block
below global entities?


procedure I is
   type T is range 1 .. 42;
begin

   declare
      type Local is access T;
      x: Local;
      y: Local := new T;
   begin
      x := new T;
   end;

end I;
