Larry submitted this a little while ago and somehow I lost it.
I think that its already been covered by IR2039.

Description of Problem
----------------------

    The example at the end of section 3.2.1.1 has a typo or two in the
    generic map.  The text currently has generic map(1 to 2 : >
    (others => '0'))
    
    I believe this has two errors.  First the formal name is missing
    so the first part should be "ROM(1 to 2)".  The second problem is
    that ROM(1 to 2) is of type Memory which is an unconstrained array
    of WORD (basically a bit-vector) so the type of the actual should
    be an array of WORD
