Agreed, and that's quite sad, eventual Delphi syntax support makes
FreePascal actually FreeDelphi.

About FPC syntax and new feature: fpc packages (afaik not yet implemented).
I'm wondering, what syntax would be used to define an "external"
class. Would it follow obj-p (objc branch) style? (adding 'external'
keyword after class declaration).
