   If it doesn't provide them, then it is not a valid Ada compiler.
Ada 83 also provided bit operations on boolean arrays, and many
compiler vendors provided the wrappers needed to use them on integers.
For example, Verdix (and SunAda) provide the package v_i_bits.

   Ada 95 adds bit operations on modular types.
