Okay, that might be true in the middle of the modifier list, but not if
it's the last one:

=== code begin ===

unit tprocmod;

interface

procedure Bla; cdecl; [public, overload]

var
  test: LongInt;

implementation

procedure Bla;
begin
end;


end.

=== code end ===

This results in "Syntax error, ";" expected but "VAR" found".

In how far that can be used to handle the modifiers and attributes
together in parallel needs to be seen...
