When the following program is compiled with option -gl -Mdelphi and executed, it results in
An unhandled exception occurred at $00000000 : EAccessViolation : Access violation without a stack trace or line numbers. How come? Is that a bug? (If so, I will submit it as such.) The problem remains when SysUtils is used as well. This makes it very awkward to find the source of such unhandled exceptions. (Something similar seems to happen with incorrect calls to Format.) Is there any workaround?
