In Ada 95 you don't need to instantiate Integer_IO on type Integer. An
instantiation of Integer_IO, called Ada.Integer_Text_IO, comes
predefined as part of the standard library.
Ditto for type Float; there's a predefined instantiation called
Float_Text_IO.
Q for language lawyers: why no predefined instantiation of Fixed_IO for
type Duration?
As an alternative solution to the problem of converting a string to an
integer, you can use the attribute Integer'Value.
