> 2) My current patch is more "hard": it makes changes in 6 units:

should be easy. The version in the compiler can be replaced

>     pmodules.pas;
should not be that hard as there aren't much changes in this unit

>     cobjects.pas;
for 1.1 this unit will be replaced by cclasses. Only tdictionary is still used from
cobjects, but will also be remove in favor of cclasses soon.

>     psub.pas;
This unit has been split in psub.pas and pdecsub.pas guess you need to patch pdecsub.pas
for the changes.

>     pdecl.pas;
could be hard as pdecvar has been split off

>     t_win32.pas;
should not be that hard

>     files.pas.
has been split in finput and fmodule. guess you'll need the fmodule.pas

Should not be that hard to implement, but needs some discussion if we want to support
this.
