No, not really. As Kenjiro already pointed out, they aren't that different.
After thinking about it for a while now I tend to fully agree with Jake. First
of all, the new Pascal versions offer much more possibilities and are more
up-to-date than older versions. Second, altough I know that Delphi 7 is still
widely used (for a number of reasons), it is now 10 years on the market and it
will for sure get not more popular within the next years - quite the opposite.
I think, we should move forward and get the XE version integrated first ASAP.
Next step could be to add support for earlier and/or other versions, such as D7
and FPC (Free Pascal).

We'll see. One step after another.
