Not in an easy way at the moment, I don't expect it to change anytime soon.

The problem is probably the streaming system that the compiler can't 
easily determine if it is used runtime. This also has resourcestrings as 
errors, uses typeinfo etc etc.  I also see interface related support 
probably because tcomponent also implements interfaces.
