GPC and several of the other ISO aspirants I assume. Free Pacal added it in its ISO mode too, though much more recently (afaik the current production 2.6.x series). Some examples are in the testsuite here: http://svn.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/trunk/tests/test/ tisogoto* are the interprocedural goto tests, specially http://svn.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/trunk/tests/test/tisogoto1.pp?revision=15710&view=markup tmaclocalprocparam* are the closurelike functionality P.s. Delphi 2009 has a closure like feature too, called "anonymous methods".
