Congratulations! However, in the future please try to split your  
commits more. For example, it seems the optimisation regarding the  
RTTI for initialisation could have been committed (and hence tested  
and potentially merged) separately from the rest.

The syntax with the separate "var aFoo: TFoo" parameter, but then  
seemingly using that parameter as some kind of automatic alias for a  
fake "self" in the body, is also rather strange (why don't you have to  
use "aFoo.F := 10" etc?)
