I asked Paul Whittington why he used unchecked conversion, and he replied

I used

  function WinError_HRESULT_To_ObjBase_HRESULT is new
    Ada.Unchecked_Conversion (Win32.WinError.HRESULT,Win32.ObjBase.HRESULT);


yes, but why?  why not a normal checked conversion here, why on earth
are you messing with unchecked conversions betweejn integer types, makes
no sense at all to me!
