"I agree that the name of my package may be confusing, because what I
really wrote was a *substitute* for unbounded strings for use with an Ada
83 compiler.  I still hope that the package will prove useful to others.

Sure, and it is a reasonable data structure, but it is not what
unbounded strings are about. If you want an Ada 83 substitute for
unbounded strings, you can certainly have one that is identical to
the Ada 95 semantics with the exception of the automatic storage
finalization.
