Actually, on second thought, this suggests Embarcadero is taking their new
ownership of Delphi very seriously to have found and fixed a bug of this
nature. I can see why it worked out as it did. There really wasn't any other
option for them to take than to just simply fix their parser. If things were
in a perfect world perhaps they could have included a compiler warning
message saying something to the effect: "Warning: Change of behavior due to
missing semi-colon in case block." and given me the option to flag it as
handled so the warning would no longer appear.

Anyway, back to work.

Thanks again Andreas,
