So that answers my original question, that FPC still doesn't support
namespace functionality like Delphi. :-) You can't specify the namespace
scope, so the compiler cannot know which units to use if there are
multiple units with the same partial qualified unit names. So currently
it is just a cosmetic "thing" (fancy unit names) in FPC.

Just for reference, here is the Namespace Prefixes option in Delphi's
project options. See the screenshot.
