Even worse, with circular unit references (which I don't like, but we have to support them), things get even trickier. I could construct some example if you really care ...
Why do we have to support them? I thought units were already non-standard, and I'm not aware of any compiler that DOES support circular units; is there one? FreePascal does not, and Turbo Pascal does not.
User's Guide, Borland Pascal With Objects, version 7.0, page 131:
"Because units in Borland Pascal don't need to be strictly hierachi- cal, you can make circular unit references. ...see chapter 10 in the Language Guide."
