Strange conclusion!
I'd rather think those people know there is no reason to guess here
or to depend on vague recollections, as the RM is readily available.
Just look at the index or do a quick text search in the ASCII version.
This may be a better way of spending time than going through all
sources adding unnecessary representation clauses.
If you find that the problem isn't with the language but with
the implementation, you should have your compiler vendor fix it
and/or provide a good work-around until it is fixed. You should
expect better support from your vendor than a newsgroup like CLA!
