It's certainly (imho) a bit of a wart that you need at least two
elements in the A'Range'Base to make a zero-length array. And it's
not clear that 'First and 'Last should be defined at all when 'Range
is empty, although it's certainly convenient sometimes.
Mind you, most of the time you can test for membership in 'Range
rather than comparing directly to 'Last or 'First.
