The new subprogram is in src/ada_numerics-generic_arrays.ad[bs] with the
others. Compiling test_extensions.adb using test_extensions.gpr will go
ahead and build it with the new library source.

Unfortunately I forgot to update test_extensions.adb to use the new
subprogram; so there are no hints about the calling sequence. You can
see how it works in test/real_generalized_eigenvalues.adb (eg, line
361).

As I think I've said before, test_extensions.adb should really be called
demonstrate_extensions.adb; a test program really ought to state the
expected results!
