This is not supported and the last time it was discussed here on the 
mailing lists it was shot down (though I can't find the thread 
currently...).
Also why should it exist in Delphi mode when Delphi does not support it? 
(Yes, there are some features that work in Delphi mode that Delphi 
doesn't support, but in generic the purpose of mode Delphi is to support 
Delphi code)

As I had already written you on the Forum ( http://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,39051.msg269034.html#msg269034 ) this is WIP and you could help the author if you wanted.
