Yes, and that makes it GPL incompatible.

To be honest I'm a bit afraid of the situation where some Debian devel sees
Lazarus (that has used .invoke somewhere in the LCL in the future)
generating GPL incompatible binaries, including the lazarus binary itself.

I think it is better to simply not support the functionality on some
targets/archs then rashly use libffi.
