If you reference it the main plugin file then you'll get an error but if you
reference it in a separate .pas file and then include that .pas file in the
Uses statement of you main plugin file then it should work fine. I have no
idea why it works this way but it works. For instance, all I do in the main
plugin file is initialize a form and then activate it. All the forms I use
are in separate .pas files which are just included in the main plugin file.
