I sent email about this recently, but it might have gotten lost due to
the telecommunicatiosn disruption in NYC since I didn't see any response.

I'd like to understand reasoning behind the quoted error message.  What is
the problem with a *type* (as opposed to an object) whose size overflows?

This causes problems with Ada and I think I also saw another issue raised
with this change.
