And thoroughly break Delphi compatibility at the same time :)
Especially for assembler routines this could result in quite a few
problems.
Hmm... But Delphi does the very same thing - returns strings and
variants in parameters - so the compatibility is expected to increase?
I didn't know that. In that case, it may indeed increase Delphi
compatibility (but decrease backwards FPC compatibility).
