The second invocation of
VMyForm := TMyForm.Create(...);
causes the exception. The program does not even get the opportunity to
set a name. My program currently in fact does NOT set the name after
creation. It has been set manually in the Object Inspector, and this is
the base name for the type/variable in the form's unit. Changing that
name in the OI, changes the type/variable names throughout the source.
The form must have a name. But I would think it is only needed at
design time (the Lazarus IDE uses it), not at runtime.
