Frank,
I think the crux of the matter here is how to make the distinction between
a pointer with 'no value' and one that is initialized or set to the 'lowest
possible value in the range'. The quote I mentioned comes directly from

Hello,
There seems to be a bigger issue on this... but perhaps someone else confirm
that the following programs, similar to the failing one, work.
program test1;
var
p: Pointer;
begin
p := nil;
p := p + 1;
end.
Does work and the following program
program test2;
var
+ 1' works (compiles) but issues a warning
about the 'p = p + 1' expression (GCC v4).

That's because the error was in the constant evaluation (nil and 1 are both
constants).

The reserved word nil is a special constant that can be assigned to any

anything.

Hello
I have read on the wiki that FP supports ARM.. which I find very
interesting..
After reading the manuals I see that FP uses the GNU tools as back-ends and
they support ARM ... but it that the extent of the support here.
For example, the ASM directive in FP targets the IA33 processor
the FP syntax is implemented to use ARM register
and assembler sematics/syntax which the GNU Assembler assumes will be set by
the language 'front end'
