I got sloppy with the names, of course.  The package name is
Ada.Strings.Bounded, and the generic I'm referring to is the nested
generic package Generic_Bounded_Length.  Please imagine the
appropriate substitutions in the rest of my post.  Hopefully you can
all tell what I meant.  I guess that tells you how often I use this.
