Why doesn't Delphi compiler complain about it? A quick search
revealed that Delphi's Windows.pas unit doesn't contain a
TCriticalSection type definition, so why does FPC's Windows.pas unit?
Why must FPC have two TCriticalSection type definitions?
It was translated automatically with the h2pas tool, probably with the -t
option, which prepends a T to all types. For backwards compatibility we
cannot revert this.
Hmm, didn't older (<6) versions simply have this, and did synobjs get
introduced later? In that case, if Delphi can break compat, so can we.
D5 has Windows.TRTLCriticalSection, and SyncObjs.TCriticalSection which
encapsulates a TRLTCriticalSection.
