+ The typedef layer needs be preserved in order to differentiate between

+ a typedef of the pointer type. For instance, considering:

+ type String_Access is access String;
+ S1 : String_Access := null;
+
+ To the debugger, S1 is defined as a typedef of type String. But
+ to the user, it is a pointer. So if the user tries to print S1,
+ we should not dereference the array, but print the array address
+ instead.
+
+ If we didn't preserve the typedef layer, we would lose the fact that
+ the type is to be presented as a pointer (needs de-reference before
+ being printed). And we would also use the source-level type name. */
