Even if FPC supported such a mess, this won't solve the fundamental
problem with C headers: they work only properly if every used header is
compiled for each source file again so the whole unit concept of object
pascal has to be thrown away. So using a fully automated always working
approach you've go back to {$I ...}-style imports. Even ignoring the
fact that the real value of a half automated translated header is that
someone spent some brain into the translation and how it can be done in
a pascal styled way.
