I am not a language lawyer, nor do I play one on TV.
Since all types in Ada are anonymous, only subtype names may be used for
the Entity parameter of pragma Convention. However, the notes say
"Implementations may place restrictions on interfacing pragmas ...", so
an implementation may restrict the Entity parameter to be the
first-named subtype of a type.
