Guess which highly rated Modula Compiler allows code like

    PROCEDURE a (VAR I : CHAR);
    (* sic : I passed as VAR parameter *)
    BEGIN END a;

    VAR  x : CARDINAL;

    BEGIN
      a(CHR(x));
      a(CHAR(x));
      (* but not CHAR(x) := 'a' *)

Perhaps there is more than one solution to my quiz?
