You could rename your "HelloC.o to "_HelloC.o" before archiving inte the
library? Not that beautiful, but would be working, wouldn't it?

@Sven:
Maybe it is a later addition,  but her on fpc 2.6.4 your syntax is not
mentioned in the Programmers Guide (prog.pdf).

If i did look carefully enough there is no description of the syntax for:

"external name <NAME>"

And more, those details of naming and the different name conventions on Win32
and Win64 are missing, too. I think there should be at least a wiki page or
better some explanations in the Programmers Guide.
