Yes.
If the program is using ceiling-priority-based protection, the priority
of the calling object must be less or equal to the priority of the
called object.

An entry call is potentially blocking and therefore not allowed in a
protected operation.

I assume that is a "feature" of the referenced Debug package, not of the
basic method it uses to implement a logging facility.
I haven't looked at the Debug package, but I would have suggested a
logging facility that consists of:
1. A LIFO queue of log entries implemented in a protected object of
highest priority. The object has a procedure "Write_Log_Entry".
2. A task that empties the LIFO queue into a log file. The task calls an
entry of the LIFO protected object to get a log entry from the queue,
but executes the file-writing operations in task context, not in a
protected operation.
