Unfortunately, I don't see any way that your answer addressed John's
question. It simply looks like another thread hijacking to me.

If you care to spell out how your concern for a 64-bit Delphi compiler
(support for one future platform) relates to John's question, I'm sure
people here can explain how there are surer ways to guarantee the
compatibility of your Delphi code for future computing platforms.
