This makes the compiler issue the same error:
size clause not allowed for variable length type
for an Object_Size clause on a variable-sized type as for a Size clause,
for example on the following procedure:
procedure P (X, Y : Integer) is
subtype Sub is String (X .. Y) with Object_Size => 64;
begin
null;
end;
Tested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, committed on trunk
