The real question is "why do you want to do this?"
This sounds to me like trying to write C in Ada.
The package System defines comparison functions for type Address.
The package System.Storage_Elements defines arithmetic for
type Address.
Perhaps you are trying to deal with passing pointers in C.
In that case, System.Address is more appropriate than Unsigned_32.
Unsigned_32 is a non-portable representation of an address.
