Actually, 'Succ already does this, but it is a function and doesn't have an
amount. Perhaps if it took an amount, this would be sufficient? But then again,
'Succ works on enumerated types too, which would have us use something
nonsensical like "Month'Succ (Current_Month, February)" to bump the value by 2
enumerations.
