We've discussed this, but using the capitalization from the Pascal identifier would, unfortunately, be wrong because Pascal by definition is case-insensitive, i.e.
procedure Foo; external;
and
procedure foo; external;
are equivalent, i.e. must yield the same result. Of course, FPC doesn't care about standard Pascal
The above is also equivalent in FPC. Only if additionally "cdecl" (or C in MacPas) is added, then the capitalization of the identifier is kept for obvious reasons.
