I don't think this is necessary (the Delphi mode is for delphi
compatibility, and till now even half decent patches that improve
compatibilitiy have been accepted), and changing is not an option since that
unnecessarily breaks compatibility.

Adding the Delphi syntax to Delphi mode would be enough.
