/*
 *  1003.1b-1993,2.2.2.80 definition of priority, p. 19
 *
 *  "Numericallly higher values represent higher priorities."
 *
 *  Thus, RTEMS Core has priorities run in the opposite sense of the POSIX API.
 *
 *  There are only 254 posix priority levels since a task at priority level
 *  255 would never run because of the RTEMS idle task.  This is necessary
 *  because GNAT maps the lowest Ada task priority to the lowest thread
 *  priority.  The lowest priority Ada task should get to run, so there is
 *  a fundamental conflict with having 255 priorities.
