He ascribed the "extensions for Ada 95" to "Compaq Ada".  That is the
Ada83 implementation (nee DEC Ada (nee VAX Ada)) and has nothing to
do with GNAT on Alpha VMS.

At least one of those extensions in Compaq Ada is a slight variation
on bounded/unbounded string, added as a package rather than built into
the compiler.
