[fpc-devel]Version 1.0.6 Prerelease is out !

[Klaus Hartnegg]

Some more dos106 problems (all in dos window of win98,
because I could not install it in plain dos):

ide does not save position of window with contents of debug/output
although auto save desktop is activated

this does not compile (incorrect error "duplicate identifier")
  var
    i : byte;
    {$IFDEF DEBUG}
    i : word;
    {$ENDIF}
  begin
    writeln ('hello, world!');
  end.

ide crashes about every second time I try to compile something,
or more precise when I try to jump to the position of a syntax error
when that's in another big file (unit),
here's another screen output that I could grab:
FPC double exception, exiting due to signal 000D
FPC General Protection Fault at eip=0015DCD2

sorry for the many bad news, but there's also a very
good one: an extremely complex source compiled perfect after
just a few tiny changes and produced the correct result,
so the base must be extremely good, there's just a few
things left to polish up a bit, then it's great,
but the many ide crashes are a nuisance, unfortunately
I can not find a clearly reproducable situation.
