Ok, I just moved that declaration to under the var section of the unit, and
it all works, so I'm thinking I can't do conditionals in a class
declaration? I could understand the problem if it was a published property
being stored in a dfm but there not... Is this a bug in Delphi or is this
behaviour documented?
