I think they (FPC) have added their own implementation. Haven’t looked in more details, but saw some code posted, and I think they had a different implementation than Emb., using the lambda keyword. In any case at some point it will have to be adopted one way or another, as it helps tremendously in reducing and improving the code. We decided to ditch support for any version of Delphi older than XE2 mainly because of the enormous power of the Lambdas, and the bugs in the XE implementation (a lot of internal compiler errors).
No, FPC does currently not support anonymous functions (please don't call them Lambdas... at least not with that verbose syntax ;) ). We have a branch where an independant developer started to work on them, but development there has stalled. What you might have seen recently on this list was a discussion about a potential improvement of the syntax (less verbose for simpler cases).
