  I tested it on Gnat 3.13p on Windows before posting, and Gnat was
perfectly happy with it.  And ARM 13.5.1(23) says that "If component
clauses are given for all components, the record representation clause
completely specifies the representation of the type and will be obeyed
exactly by the implementation."  That seems pretty unambiguous to me.
