I'm wondering if it's a question about global vs local variables warning:
http://lists.freepascal.org/lists/fpc-devel/2012-November/030337.html

The warning is true for local vars and indeed it bites! (bites good when
porting delphi to fpc), but should not be a problem for global vars (as in
example above).

thanks,
Dmitry
