Add

at the top of your unit, then this "Delhpi compatible" syntax will be
enabled. The two default FPC modes (fpc and objfpc) are more strict than
the Delphi one.
As an aside, this has nothing to do with strictness. The reason is that FPC
and ObjFPC mode allow function overloading without the "overload" keyword. So
the compiler sees the above as two overloaded functions (one public, one
private) as opposed to the interface and implementation declaration of the
same function.
Isn't it amazing ? 2 core FPC developers give the same explanation :-)
