[fpc-pascal] Operator overload bug

[Ben Grasset]

Also, one other thing: you should *really* be specifying the
right-hand-side array parameter as "const" there. If you don't, it will be
copied in its entirety instead of being passed by reference. Basically just
always pass everything as "const"  (or "constref" if it's specifically a
record) unless you literally can't.
