Dan is wrong on several points. Most notably, it is perfectly legal for
a compiler to use a represetnation for a subtype that is different from
the basee type, and in certain cases (constrained subtypes of unconstrained
variant records with default discriminants), it is a common implementation.
But some compilers will even use a different representation for subtypes
of integer, and this is perfectly legitimate.
