I didn't follow the thread very much so maybe it is not relevant in this
context but it is all BUT safe to bet that all access types will be implemented
the same way within a given implementation...
for instance access to unconstrained arrays are fat pointers for GNAT and thus
completely different than access to constrain objects. furthermore, Pool
specific access types can take advantage of the specificity of their pool and
may completely differ from one pool to the other.
It is probably safe to state that general access types whose designated type
is constrained are likely to be implemented the same way in a given
implementation, but I'm not completely sure
