How about:


package A is

   type Size is (Small, Large);

   type Foo is range 1 .. 8;

   package Base is
      type T is record
         A : Boolean;
         B : Boolean;
         C : Boolean;
         D : Size;
         E : Foo;
      end record;
   end Base; 

   type T is new Base.T;

   procedure P (X : in T); -- a null procedure for the sake of example

end A;

with A;
package B is

   type T is new A.Base.T;
   for T use record -- line 5
      A at 0 range 0 .. 0;
      B at 0 range 1 .. 1;
      C at 0 range 2 .. 2;
      D at 0 range 3 .. 3;
      E at 0 range 4 .. 7;
   end record;

end B;
