[Oberon] FPGA - Pointers to [named] records only

Hi,

With recent compiler update, this is not possible to code anymore:

Generic = POINTER TO RECORD END;

WHY IS THAT?

My understanding so far was, that one needs record descriptors when
extending types also in support of OOP.

Pointer to records implies dynamic allocation in system heap, while
static records declared as variables allocated on the stack.
