Thanks for the info. I suggest to document this somewhere. But I am not
(in my own code projects) using RTTI, class info, FPC memory allocation,
reference counted types, exception catching or global variables. Which
explains that I never got in trouble there.
Note various to/from string and date types use locale info that is also
duplicated. Basically everything that uses RTL state + anything that uses
compiler generated tables. (there is two times RTL state and there can be
two copies of those compiler tables).
Plus if using the Lazarus IDE/LCL, you can have forms embedded in a DLL
(or unix .so) rather than in the main program. It's possible to copy
stuff between the two to e.g. merge menu structures: it takes work but
isn't particularly painful.
