Thank you and others for your explanations.  I  have
a  related  question  which  seems unworthy of a new
thread.  I can't compile this program with -Miso:

  Program Test;
  var object: integer;
  begin
  end.

Free Pascal tells me that

  test.pas(2,5)  Fatal:  Syntax  error,   "identifier"
  expected but "OBJECT" found.

According to the documentation, in this mode

  the  compiler  complies  with  the  requirements  of
  level 0 and level 1 of ISO/IEC 7185.

but ISO/IEC 7185 does not list  'object'  as  a  re-
served  word.  I have also failed to find an -M fea-
ture responsible for the support of stack-based  ob-
jects.  How can I disable it?
