You're a little late for that. See Big_Integer:

http://www.ada-auth.org/standards/2xrm/html/RM-A-5-6.html

and Big_Real:

http://www.ada-auth.org/standards/2xrm/html/RM-A-5-7.html

Since Ada 202x has user-defined literals and user-defined Image, this is 
almost as good as a built-in number. The only downside would be using them 
in generics (like GEF), but most of those implementations assume a maximum 
precision that's not true for these so they'd need rewriting anyway.
