Unless somebody found a new magic > algorithm in the last decade... I agree. Although, I'm not against someone adding a .NET target (which has to be garbage collected), or doing some cool things (like, apps, libraries, frameworks, etc.) with the JVM compiler (which uses a garbage collector). But people don't seem to be interested in that. For the native targets, I think garbage collection is a bad idea. That being said, I think some garbage collectors that can be used with C and C++ can also be used with Free Pascal, or at least, support for them should be easy to implement for the few people who want to use them.
