  Check 9.8(5) of the Ada* LRM.  It states that "For tasks of the same
priority, the scheduling order is not defined by the language.  For tasks
without explicit priority, the scheduling rules are not defined..."  Your
Ada compiler's runtime system is allowed to do almost anything with the
output from your two tasks (in terms of interleaving, starvation, etc.).
If you want the output from your two tasks to be periodicly switched back
and forth between the tasks, you'll have to program it that way.
