Because IO of a private type is type specific, it would be necessary to inherit
the proper IO routines. Fortunately, Ada provides the ability to do just that
by using a "with <subroutine>" clause in the list of generic formal parameters.

For a full explanation, see section 12.1.3 of the Ada-82 Reference Manual.
