Which platform do you use? It works correctly on FreeBSD.

Correct.

> 3. My standard way for "variable size arrays" in BP doesn't work in gpc:

gpc doesn't have such limits, but your example should work.


> 4. Problem with CONST parameters:
> PROCEDURE p(CONST c:t)

This is BP, try the EP standard

	PROCEDURE p(protected c:t)

as a workaround.


> 5. Initialized set variables don't seem to work:

Known bug.


> 6. Last but not least:
> Is there anything like TP's Exit (return from current procedure/function)?

A goto with an explicit label.


Groetjes,
