Heureka :-)

While Delphi 7 requires that the unit name matches the file name, even 
when using IN, and AFAIR allows for IN only in the project file (*.DPR), 
FPC imposes no such restrictions.

Now we can go on-topic: While FPC already supports true unit alias, 
Lazarus (code completion...) cannot handle unit1B in your example :-(
