"If not specified, the value of Stream_Size for an elementary type
should be the number of bits that corresponds to the minimum number of
stream elements required by the first subtype of the type, rounded up
to the nearest factor or multiple of the word size that is also a
multiple of the stream element size."
"If a stream element is the same size as a storage element, then the
normal in-memory representation should be used by ``Read`` and
``Write`` for scalar objects. Otherwise, ``Read`` and ``Write``
should use the smallest number of stream elements needed to represent
all values in the base range of the scalar type."
Followed, except that the number of stream elements is a power of 2.
The Stream_Size may be used to override the default choice.
Followed. By default, GNAT uses the interpretation suggested by AI-195,
which specifies using the size of the first subtype.
However, such an implementation is based on direct binary
representations and is therefore target- and endianness-dependent.
To address this issue, GNAT also supplies an alternate implementation
of the stream attributes ``Read`` and ``Write``,
which uses the target-independent XDR standard representation
for scalar types.
