Maybe, but in the area of discussion (fixed-point handling, and fixed-point
vs floating-point), there is no significant change between Ada 83 and Ada 95,
so this is an irrelevant point. The bottom line here is that despite claims
of problems with fixed-point in Ada 83, we have no details at all on exactly
what these supposed shortcomings were.
