I'm a little confused by this renaming of function return values.  If T
is a limited type and F is a function returning T, then I understand one
can:
  X:T renames F(...);
and one cannot
  X:T := F(...);
Is that correct?
If T is not limited, then what are the differences between
  X : T renames F(...);
  Y : T := F(...);
