This is technically impossible. Both FPC and Lazarus don't have a complete
overview of all units and includefiles in a project, and compiles can also
be parts of program.
Rule of thumb: anything global must be passed on the cmdline everytime, and
directives are only for unit level. (a few special ones for library units
like $libsuffix excluded)
