It is not.

I don't see anything about this in the docs:

You cannot do length in a PChar, it has no length information. I think
this code is probably automatically converting the PChar to a Pascal
String and
procedure getchars( p : pchar );
var l : longint;
begin
l := length( p );
end;
If calling getchars with chars longer than 255 l is always 255.
For example:
getchars( '12345 ... 255256257258' +
'1234567213939873987' +
...
...
'12345672
