Sorry, this is my internal love to packed records. For this case I
think there is no difference between them. Changed to record.
As a general note, even if the size is the same in this case, the packed
also dictates on how a variable of this type is placed on stack. While a
normal record is placed on a dword (or was it the first member)
boundary, a packed record is immediately placed after the previous
variable. This can lead to serious speed penalties and/or buserrors on
platforms not supporting unaligned data access (sparc/arm)
Because of this we have removed all unnecesary packed declarations
