Does the MCL FFI support loading compiled MPW Object Pascal code with objects,
or compiled MPW C++ code?
If not, perhaps MCL 2.1 could support it. For now, loading multisegment code
resources created with Think C into MCL seems to be preferable.
Unfortunately, using code resources doesn't solve all problems since
porting applications to code resources requires callbacks from the ROM to be
careful about setting up and restoring the A4 register in order to access
globals. This makes it difficult to take advantage of existing C libraries.
