   Int_Array'(1,2,3,4,5) is a value of type Int_Array.
   Int_Array (1,2,3,4,5) won't work--assuming Int_Array is a type or
                         subtype name. 
   Int_Array (foo) converts foo to an Int_Array.
   Int_Array (Foo_Array'(1,2,3,4,5)) will convert the Foo_Array value
                 to an Int_Array.
