Yet another idea (have not seen it before):

>     year : integer range 1900 .. 2099 := 1900;

type year_type is range 1900 .. 2099 := 1900;
for year_type'Size use 256;

>     month : integer range 1 .. 12 := 1;

type month_type range 1 .. 12 := 1;
for month_type'Size use 4;

>     day : integer range 1 .. 31 := 1;

type day_type range 1 .. 31 := 1;
for day_type'Size use 5;

And continue to build from there.

With Regards

Martin
