Just a question. Can smart linking detect and remove unused virtual methods?
I did a few tests and it seems it does not remove them. If I understand
it correctly, then this could be because virtual methods are nver
directly linked (they go via the VMT) so the linker would not know?

but I have no luck in identifying it...
The mail also says that it hasn't been done yet!

Hi,
Since revision 9898 the LongBool type behaves differently. This was done
for Delphi compatibility (see log message here
http://svn.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi?view=revrevision=9898). In
short, if B is LongBool, then B := true; sets now B to $
(while previously it set B to 1).
