Additionally fpdoc cannot parse the following const declaration:
const
  DefaultLogFont: TLogFont = (lfHeight:0;
    lfWidth:0;
    lfEscapement:0;
    lfOrientation:0;
    lfWeight:0;
    lfItalic:0;
    lfUnderline:0;
    lfStrikeOut:0;
    lfCharSet:0;
    lfOutPrecision:0;
    lfClipPrecision:0;
    lfQuality:0;
    lfPitchAndFamily:0;
    lfFaceName:'default';
  );

Note the semi colon before the ) at the end.

Shall I create a new bug report for it? Or is it better to just remove
that semi colon. The compiler seems to accept both syntaxes.
