This is very cool. Somehow, I missed this when I went through the FPC
documentation. I didn't know FPC could do this. That gives us the unit alias
funcitonality that Delphi has. So we can use this to alias the LCLLinux unit
with the Windows unit when compiling under Linux. We can also use this with the
WinTypes and WinProcs units just like Delphi does. This is great and gives us
one more thing to be compatible with Delphi :-)
