Initialization sections may be used to register things. For example if
you include the interfaces unit, then you create the WidgetSet object
for the chosen widgetset. No other code is in that unit, but it is
needed for proper working of an LCL application (remove the interfaces
unit from .lpr file to see what I mean). So it would be wrong for the
compiler not to call the initialization section of that unit, even if it
is not used later.
