A.3.3 The Package Characters.Latin_1
1
The package Characters.Latin_1 declares constants
for characters in ISO 8859-1.
1.a
Reason: The constants for the ISO 646
characters could have been declared as renamings of objects declared
in package ASCII, as opposed to explicit constants. The main reason for
explicit constants was for consistency of style with the upper-half constants,
and to avoid emphasizing the package ASCII.

Correction: Soft_Hyphen is not a graphic
character, and thus a character literal for it is illegal. So we have
to use the position value. This makes no semantic change to users of
the constant.
