-- Abstract     :  This generic package creates a Prioritized
----------------:  Queue of objects. The Queue is First-In,
----------------:  First-Out except where overridden by the
----------------:  priority.
----------------:  The priority may be any discrete type.
----------------:  It is assumed that the priorities are from
----------------:  lowest to highest.  The type of data structure
----------------:  to be instantiated for the queue may be any
----------------:  type having assignment and equality.  Other
----------------:  types may be enqueued by using access types.
----------------:  (i.e. Access variable pointing to a task.)
----------------:  The space for the Queue is allocated dynamically
----------------:  with garbage collection left up to the target
----------------:  system.
