'img is not defined in Ada. It's a Gnat attribute. The Gnat RM I have
says this should be equivalent to Status'image(S), in which case I'd
expect to see you get a "b".

Generally I'd expect you to see that Status'image(S) = "b",
Status'pos(S) = 1, and To_Integer(S) = 20 (where To_Integer is an
instatiation of unchecked_conversion between Status and Integer).
