It's more that people shouldn't expect something declared to be
subject to change and private to remain as it used to be!

We built code based on GNAT's representation of 1 Jan 1970 in
Ada.Calendar.Time being zero. That's no longer the case, since Ada
2005's extension of the supported range of Ada.Calendar.Time. Too bad!
(the actual change to our code is pretty small, even so).
