I changed to Compiler Version 3.3.1-12875-gadf843196a which is what
FPCUPDeluxe installed when I installed Trunk and now it runs just fine.
So I guess there was a bug in 3.3.1-10077-gc8403ad49e that was fixed
already. I was so convinced that I was doing something wrong I didn't even
think to

Well, I checked prior to sending my answer. If it does this, it's well
hidden. There seems to be some hook for it, though.
It hooks initproc into a linked

Well that's worth a lot, it may be indicating a bug in 3.3.1? I guess I
need to get on the current trunk to see if it's still misbehaving.

Hmm, ok, apparently something changed in the way FPC handles objects
between 3.31 and 3.20 (the version I'm using).
Thought I had 3.22, but .
I guess it could be a sapi version difference too, but I don't know how
to check that.
