constant declared as integer with parenthesis

[Dalton Marris]

I was looking at the LEON VHDL processor and there are some constants
declared as follows:

constant CFG_GPT_ENABLE : integer := 1;
constant CFG_GPT_NTIM : integer := (2);

What is the function, if any, of the parenthesis around the "2"?

Thanks.

Nothing. It may be some vestige
of an earlier expression.
