[fpc-pascal] Is Nested Procedure Types

[Andrew Brunner]

Ok, I had a test program that used a few other units.  Apparently this 
had to be placed at the top of my units that used and implemented the 
nested callback type.

{$mode objfpc}
{$modeswitch nestedprocvars}


The last question I have is when can I expect to use nested procedure 
variables system wide without compiler directives?  What's the hold-up 
or reason why the mode is even needed?

Thanks again,
