- Borland does not seem to be pushing their Pascal towards NT. Note that
- creating an NT compiler is not just a matter of rewriting the libraries.
- You must come up with a whole new code generator (32 bits).
- I also note that Borlands products are in complete disregard of the ISO and
- ANSI standards (despite statements to the contrary in their manuals).
