Try the following:

generic
   MyType_T is mod <>;
package MyGenPack
 ....
end MyGenPack;

In other words, use a modular generic parameter rather than specifying
a size. You might want to study the different kinds of generic parameters
allowed by Ada. They are clearly defined in section 12.5 of the Ada
Reference Manual.
