That's not the case. The only situation in which the compiler would be  
allowed to do that is for routines defined in the main program or in  
the implementation section of a unit that are not manually declared as  
public/export either (in your case they're both in the interface of a  
unit and manually declared as public), and for safety that maybe also  
are not called from inline assembler blocks (but it doesn't do that at  
this time).

It works fine under linux (if you replace the "-f coff" with "-f elf").
