I see... On the other hand, documentation (http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/prog/progsu160.html) says that MemSize() should return the total amount of memory available for allocation; and can return 0 in case this functionality is not supported.
In contrast, the RTL docs postulate that MemSize() should return the size of a previous allocated memory chunk. Which is what I always thought that MemSize() did. This functionality is however not mentioned in the documentation on the memory manager (see the above link)... Am I missing something here?
