[fpc-devel] Proof of Concept ARC implementation

[Boian Mitov]

And the other benefit I did not mentioned earlier, a lot of the attributes 
(if not all) can actually be implemented as compiler extending libraries ;-) 
.

With best regards,
Boian Mitov

No, they just move the potential conflicts from modifiers to attributes
namespace IMHO.  Nothing fundamental solved.
