Well done !
OTHO, IMHO this perfectly documents that the decision (supposedly by
Borland) ) to do it this way is a very nasty and the conceptional
difference between Strings and dynamic arrays, that both use reference
counting and "SetLength" is not really easy to be communicated to the
users code programmers. (Even though it might be possible to do nice
tricks with them when you exactly know what you are doing.)
