Yep.

Only that traditional Pascal programmers are not used to do

if compareUTF8String(s1, s2, comparemode) < 0 then ...

but

if s1 < s2 then ....


Thus Delphi and FPC introduce quasi-dynamically encoded Strings with 
automatic encoding-type handling.

Unexpected compare-results are hardly avoidable here :-( .
