Under linux it is not supported because linux works different with shared libraries. For procedures we could add an extra jmp with the new name.

Where did you read that? And what kind > of library (static, shared, ..) is it? It's very simple. Try compiling this: -cut- library test; var o: integer; exports o; end. -cut- it will compile on Win32, but just refuse to compile on Linux. When you search on the error the compiler generates, you'll find the docs that explain that exporting of variables is only supported on Win32.
