the use of Objective-C 1.0 constructs. Because it is a mode switch, it
can be used cumulatively with every syntax mode. Note that a {$mode xxx}
statement resets all mode switches as well, so you cannot use the
-Mobjectivec1 variant if you have such a statement in a unit. This
modeswitch is currently only enabled for Darwin/PowerPC and Darwin/i386,
as the backend support is not yet implemented for other platforms.
+ implemented selector() statement that can be used to create an Objective-C
selector for the message with the specified *constant* name (in the future,
it will also work for Objective-C method identifiers)
+ added SEL type to the system unit (the selector() statement returns it)
+ added all Objective-C segments to the assembler writers
+ (currently mostly dummy) objc1 unit that is automatically included if the
{$modeswitch objectivec1} statement is used
+ some tests for the selector() statement

+ use {$bitpacking on/+} to change the meaning of "packed"
into "bitpacked" for arrays. This is the default for MacPas.
You can also define individual arrays as "bitpacked", but
this is not encouraged since this keyword is not known by
other compilers and therefore makes your code unportable.
+ pack(unpackedarray,index,packedarray) to pack
length(packedarray) elements starting at
unpackedarray[index] into packedarray.
+ unpack(packedarray,unpackedarray,index) to unpack
packedarray into unpackedarray, with the first
element being stored at unpackedarray[index]
* todo:
* "open packed arrays" and rtti for packed arrays are not
yet supported
* gdb does not properly support bitpacked arrays
