Subject: Restrictions on compilers for Microsoft's .NET project

Page 11 of the March 2002 MSDN magazine from Microsoft announces
TMT Development Corporation's Pascal compiler for .NET.  It says the
compiler "can accept programs in standard Pascal (except for some unsafe
features, such as records with variants, which are allowed if variants
aren't overlapped)".

Is lack of variant records a TMT decision or a requirement of .NET ?
If the latter, it would not bode well for the possibility of a full
Ada compiler targeting that environment.
