First off, try to look at the uses clause of your main source file.
if it contains something like 'interfaces', remove it.

Remove the -gl (switch off debug info in "Project|Compiler options", tab
linking),
and set the output name to xsa.dll, because it is creating an exe.
("Project|project options", tab application, "Target file")
Also, disable the 'Win32 GUI application' under "Project|Compiler options", tab
linking
