[fpc-devel] Generic List in Advanded record does not compile with -MobjFPC, works with -MDelphi (perhaps related to Generics.Collections that I am using)

[Michael Ring]

I am not sure if this is a problem of the Generics.Collections unit I am 
using (https://github.com/dathox/generics.collections) as this unit is 
always compiled with -Mdelphi or if this is an issue with fpc's parser.

The following snippet compiles fine in delphi mode, but does not compile 
in ObjectFPC Mode:

type
  TSpecialFunctionBits = record
    name: String;
    Position: longWord;
    Mask: longWord;
    notMask: longWord;
    Length: longWord;
    constructor create(theName: String; thePosition, theMask, 
theLength: longWord);
  end;

Error is:

Fatal: Syntax error, ";" expected but "<" found

I saw this error with trunk fpc.
