Maybe optionally add a -dDelphi7?
The delphi7 is no real delphi compiler define. They are mapped from verx
to that.

No. This is part of that, but only the most initial level. Much is not

Isn't the define UNICODE a heritage from Delphi ( version xyz) ?
Yes, and if you chose the explicit compatibility mode for that version,

The problem is that IF your code assumes that WideString=UnicodeString

All the more reason not to try to emulate Delphi defines.
Why? We define Windows and MSWindows too?
Maybe not use linux because Kylix does ? :-)

I don't see any relationship to COM here. Java has managed objects, C++
has, .NET has, so why not OPL too?

It is decreased whenever a reference expires. Where do you see

FPC does this by default. So if this is the problem, it is in external
code
(e.g. C libs/DLLs) or assembler.
No, it does not as mentioned by Jonas in this bug
