Hopefully that's all there is to it, but how do you know that this 
doesn't just work for your current code and is not reliable for all 
situations?

If that's all there is too it, that's cool! But maybe fpc left it out 
for a reason: like it only works in some test cases of libraries, but 
not all test cases?
