Is using address_to_access_conversions the correct solution?  Something
along the lines of

package List_Address_Conversions
      is new System.Address_To_Access_Conversions (List_Type);

function First (List : in List_Type) return Iterator_Type is
begin
   ...
   return Iterator_Type'(List_Address_Conversions.to_pointer(List'Address),
List.First);
end First;

?
