Description

problem is mainly encountered when classes self-register in initialization parts

at least, it will be helpful, to introduce per-package compiler option that makes -LU linked package units initialization order the same as of dynamically loaded package

Steps to Reproduce:

program bugreport;
uses

Unit1;
begin
end.
--
package bugpack;
contains

Unit1,

Unit2;
end.
--
unit unit1;
interface
implementation
initialization

Writeln('Unit1.init');
end.
--
unit unit2;
interface
implementation
initialization

Writeln('Unit2.init');
end.
--
>dcc32 -CC bugpack.dpk
>dcc32 -LUbugpack -CC bugreport.dpr

run bugreport
Expected output:
Unit1.init
Unit2.init
Actual output:
Unit1.init

Workarounds

using LoadPackage function
