[DUG] UseHTML.pas strangeness

[Jeremy North]

Since the unit probably just has an initialization section that
registers the reader, you most likely have another dcu with the same
name on your path.

An easy test is to delete the pas and dcu of the file you think it is
using. It is still compiles, then you have another copy on your system
somewhere.
