I have no idea what BOb is thinking of here. It is perfectly fine to
call a C function that returns an int, with the Ada function having
a return type of (type Myint is new Integer), if the representation of
int and Integer are the same, as is always true of GNAT, and likely
true of most other Ada 95 compilers.
