Without turning this into a conversation on Ada, that language is
getting more attention nowadays as a multicore language. Basically,
there is no way that a highly threaded/multicore application is going
to be reasonably created with an insecure language. You can add
monitors to C/C++, but its meaningless because none of the
restrictions on access that monitors give are enforceable. Just go
look at all the threads on "man, my pthreads application crashes",
etc.
