Also, if you come across code that you think adheres to the standard but fails on gpc, I can test it using the Prospero Extended Pascal compiler if you are interested.
Further: I work for a small company sitting on a very large Prospero EP code base. They are looking for ways to port their code to another compiler or language, now that Prospero has disappeared from the ether. If FPC would get EP support then that would be very interesting for them. I am currently looking into some test programs they have written to see how much can be emulated using the current FPC and if a translation is feasible. I have even started an EP parser with the idea to build a transcompiler: https://github.com/veelo/Pascal2D
The biggest hurdle as I see it is schema types:
type
PositiveInteger = 1 .. MaxInt;
Matrix (n, m: PositiveInteger) = array [1 .. n, 1 .. m] of Integer;
I appreciate your initiative very much. How do you see your chances of achieving EP support in FPC? Can I observe the work somewhere and maybe contribute?

Hi, I found two examples on ideone, that may come in handy (don't know their origin):
