Also, if you were referring specifically to the "making the choice part",
looking at the PDQSort C++ code again, all it was actually doing is
evaluating the *types* involved, not the comparison function itself. Which
would be fairly straightforward to replicate in FPC using something like a
constant TTypeKind constraint.
