Makes you wonder why they didn't make the compiler just initialise all
local pointer variables to null to start with! Or for that matter, all

Subject: Re: [DUG] Related try..finally question
Exceptions can be generated in constructors as well.
so
try
x := Tobj.Create; //an exception could occur here
finally
x.free;//this is now a programming error
end;
