Hm, I think I did miss something... SECONDS and VOLTS are private types
derived from the same parent? GNAT permits me to cast one private type
into another as long as they derive from the same parent. Somehow, I thought
SECONDS was a new numeric rather than a new private.
Anyways, I've never tried to cast private types... been out of the
Ada coding business for too long :-( Sorry for the wasted bandwidth.
I'll check my LRM tomorrow for the rules on type conversion and privates.
