string in modules

Hi, I put a string in a module's interface. When I assign it in my main program, the string is always empty. I use this string to share information within some files. I've already read such a bug in the mailing list. But I'd like to know if this "bug" is fixed. -------------------------------My module : module m interface; export m =all; type String80 = string(80); Var myString : String80; End; ------------------------------ ---------------------------------My main program: program p; begin myString := 'allo'; writeln('myString = ', myString); end; ---------------------------------------And the result is : myString = '' My gpc version is : gpc version 20030209, based on gcc-2.95.2 19991024 (release) thanks
