Nevermind, I see this has been discussed:

I think all freepascal people have a misunderstanding of LGPL.
If you statically link the lgpl code into your EXE, your exe is the module

Another problem with errors is that sometimes it is hard for a class to
return errors. In procedural programming you can usually return an error
