How to add the Idle task to Ada runtime

I managed to get most of the Ada examples running for the raspberry pi.
However, there seem to be no default idle task.
If you have
with Text_IO; use Text_IO;
procedure Hello is
task Hello_Task;
task body Hello_Task is
begin
delay 5.0;
end Hello_Task;
begin
[1]
null;
end Hello;
The runtime will be terminated after the body of the procedure [1] is executed.
I think the usual behaviour for Ada would be that instead an idle task is running while the Hello_Task waits.
At least it works like this if I compile the file for my desktop-PC.
I found some configuration options in the RTEMS Ada user manual dealing with idle tasks, but it looks to me that it is only relevant if I would like to overwrite the default one with a bsp or application specific one.
I tried to look at some other bsps (e.g. Leon2) for reference, but haven't found anything useful yet.
Could someone point me in the right direction?
Cheers,
Jan
