There are problems with using inheritance, e.g. http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=12249 
  and http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/fpc/trunk/tests/test/tgeneric16.pp

Another compiler crash: http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=12810

It's not possible to use references to not yet fully specialised  
types, e.g. http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=11777

Assembler does not work in generics.

There are some problems with inline and generics.
