I am not seeing anything listed as a 'Breaking Change', however the following code no longer works.

//////
function Tfrm1.fldNameSetText(Sender: TObject; const Value: String): String;
begin
 Value := '$' + FloatToStr(StrToFloat(Value));
 result := Value;
end;
//////
--> Error Message:  'A value cannot be assigned to Value' <--

What if you change the routine to

 Result := '$' + FloatToStr(StrToFloat(Value));

Normally a const Value shouldn't be allowed to be modified.

This is not a breaking change - it was a bug in earlier 2.x that is now
fixed.

Thank you Raul.

I guess Tim got around to fixing this some more cause it was working with 2.03

As already mentioned, this was a bug fix.

I've upgraded to 2.04 so can't test 2.03 anymore but as per incident it
is fixed in 2.04 only (and was reported with 2.03 b1):
