This should be possible with delphi-mode if we limit ourselves to
ISO-standard and Object Pascal, which I'm learning are the only two
dialects still commonly used anyway.  That would cover source code for
GNU Pascal and Free Pascal, the two major free implementations, and
Delphi as well.

In fact this is probably already true to a large extent and it would
mostly be a matter of testing and rounding out delphi-mode's
functionality.
