I "solved" this problem some time ago. I've put together a small demonstration 
of how to link a complete C++ class to a pascal program, _without_ using a 
C-style wrapper (because /that/, anybody can do!)

I've attached two small zipfiles to this mail, which gives two such examples. 
One is for linking to existing programs, and the other is for creating 
interfaces suitable for using across several languages with minimal trouble. 
The interface example needs a little more work, but shows the basic 
principle.

I hope it's useful.
