The error appears only if you try to write(ln)/read(ln) such a record,
because this simply can never work and is also a source of errors as
this thread proves. The same error would appear if you'd have a record
with a "AnsiString" (or "UnicodeString") field instead of the generic
"String".
For the sake of argument: if I wanted, willinlgy, to write such a
record to (say) a logfile, for debugging purposes, the new fpc won't
let me?
Is that Delphi compatible?
I don't know whether it's Delphi compatible, but this error was already
there if you've used AnsiString, so it is a logical extension that this
error also appears if String is an alias to AnsiString.
And yes, the compiler won't let you write such a record (or let you even
define a "file of" type of this record).

Sven
