TP 7.0 also does not support a function result.
I donwloaded it and test it in a DOS Box.
I could swear that it supports it...

TMT Pascal (now Framework Pascal) _does_ support a function result.
Although it is not described in the online documentation.

This userfriendly pascal compiler I used some years.

I read some backup sorcecode made with TMT pascal and see that I make 
extensive use of the function result variable (because of easy to use and 
save time when changing the function name). Thus I thought freepascal is not 
mature when an error like:
'identifier "result" not found' comes up with no further comment.
