First of all, the Count entity in the Ada.Strings.Unbounded is a function,
not a procedure. There can be name conflicts between type names and function
names, because an Ada type conversion uses the function notation. For
example, if we have

    X : Ada.Text_Io.Count;
    Y : Some_Numeric_Type_Other_Than_Count;

then the was you would convert Y for assignment to X is

    X := Ada.Text_Io.Count( Y );

This is probably the source of the compiler's confusion. The solution is
obvious: qualify this occurence of Count so that the compiler, as well as
the humans reading your code, will know which Count you are referring to.
