Two of the four hint directives listed on page 11 of the Reference Guide for Free Pascal, version 2.2.4 don't work as described in the manual.
Actually there are 5 hint directives: platform, library, unimplemented, experimental and deprecated.
The "Experimental" directive causes the compiler to stop with a syntax error.
The example program listed on page 11 doesn't compile because of the "Experimental" directive. The "Unimplemented" directive seems to be ignored. (This directive is mis-spelt in the manual, but this, I am quite sure, is not the cause of the compile time error).

Are these known issues?
Have you tried with the trunk compiler? Last time I tried all 5 worked fine. The only thing is that the library directive showed no warning but this is fixed now.

Best regards,
Paul Ishenin.
