I know that Natural'Size is probably 31, but I thought that N'Size
would normally be 32. "...The Size of an object is at least as large as
that of its subtype, unless..." RM 13.3(48) So I always assumed that
the Natural'Size glitch only applied to the subtype. I guess a compiler
could return 32 for N'Size, does anyone know of a compiler that does
so? (Or in general returns wordsize-1 as the size for standalone
objects of subtype Natural.)
