Issue with fcl-passrc
lazarus / 62-General

I detected a problem with the parser provided by fcl-passrc. Using the
demo code in https://wiki.freepascal.org/fcl-passrc in order to parse
the unit math, the declaration of function power is not correctly
recognized, beacause the parser extracts as name:

Interface item 62: power(float,float):float
Interface item 63: power(Int64,Int64):Int64

while I expect simply 'power'. The problem don't arise with other
declarations in the unit.

I attached the code for convenience. Could it be a bug? Or do I miss
something?

Thanks in advance for the help.

This is not a bug. I apologize. The definitions of ** operators are
parsed with the name "Power" as well.
