anoymous -> "inherited" instead of "inherited SomeCall(AParam: Type);"

call through -> well, I'm no native English speaker either, and I also
found "through" isn't an appropriate word. IMVHO it's the new behavior
that calls "through" the parent into the exact overriden method ;-)
The example is clear for me. Anonymous 'inherited' will call an exact
inherited implementation instead of a compatible overload in the
parent/intermediate ancestors. I wasn't really aware of the
old/current-release FPC behavior :-o

It doesn't reject the overloads?
