It's an interesting concept i.e. if a bug exists in Delphi then it must
also exist in FPC.
Yes I agree. FPC's Interfaces support suffer the same fate. eg: FPC's
CORBA style interfaces which Delphi doesn't have, implements the same
bugs as Delphi COM Interfaces???
I would prefer FPC to be bug free, no matter the compiler mode. If you
want bugs (and don't mind paying for them), stay with Delphi. If you
want a better compiler which is bug free, move to Free Pascal.

Probably handling TDate as TDateTime in FPC is adding:
operator :=(const source : TDate) dest : variant;{$ifdef
SYSTEMINLINE}inline;{$endif}
begin
VariantManager.VarFromTDateTime(Dest, TDateTime(Source));
end;
in case of Delphi (at least 7) TDate is defined in Controls, so Variants
cann't depend on Controls.TDate ...
