In fact I think this is one of the more easy things.
The main problem seems to me that you need to support things like pointers,
which is something deeply embedded in Pascal.
I think the "suitable RTL" is a reference to an earlier discussion about
this subject, where this (pointers) was also said, and that maintaining an
native RTL without pointers was not desirable.
I think 'RTl' is way too limited in scope. Pointers are used in
many many pascal sources.
