This is something that has just recently stopped working for us(with update
to current trunk). We previously were using trunk rev 36812 with no
problems.
Placing a second call
foo('a')
calls the expected WideChar version.

Fails with current trunk fpc with the following messages

It fails with same messages with {$MODE OBJFPC}. Is this known. I can enter
a Mantis if desired.
Hey David,
The compiler says "Can't determine which overloaded function to call"
because both are strings.
