Before looking at your code, I'd know the role that your project plays
at all. Is it only about making the FPC code compilable by Delphi, as
the first stage in the FPC bootstrap?
In this case it would be easier to use an older Delphi commandline
compiler, from the time before the Ansi-To-Unicode move, or simply an
legacy FPC. You also could try to make the FPC sources compile by gcc -
but I'd delay any such attempts to the time, when there doesn't exist
any immediately applicable compiler any more.
I think that's very wise advice. I'd also throw in that there's a few
things in the compiler etc. that I'm interested in looking at, but that
I'm trying to build up a sound base of experience actually /using/ it
first. The community has put up with me for six years or so, I still
consider myself an inexperienced beginner, and I'd be very reluctant to
make any suggestion that the developers had overlooked something
significant.
