I'm hoping it is a bug Joe. When /Free was announced it was stated
that while the "missing parens" syntax would continue to be supported
in fixed form, that empty parens _would_ be supported in fixed and
required in /Free.
Jon, if it _is_ a bug, it's one that we just have to live with,
unfortunately. The compiler can't start requiring empty parens now.
Parens _are_ required for no-return-value calls in /free, but not for
calls in expressions. I don't particularly like this inconsistency.
Me, I think the parens should always be optional.
