"Leave" is declared as an intrinsic in the system unit because in MacPas
mode it means the same as "break" in UCSD-derivates.
We don't have support in the compiler for declaring intrinsics in units
other than the system unit (so we can't declare it in the macpas unit
instead), and we don't have a different system unit for each supported
syntax mode either (otherwise it would not be possible to mix units
compiled in different syntax modes in a single program), which is why
you see this behaviour.
