The one I had back in 2012.
My old branch is here: http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/fpc/branches/blaise/closures

Thanks.
Shall I file it in the bug tracker, then?

I am slightly confused by your choice of the pronoun, so allow me to reiterate: the issue exists in the "stock" compiler, even without my patches applied.

I am not at all familiar with this part of the compiler, so devising a test case, that would result in invalid codegen, would be difficult for me.
Based on your explanation, it seems it would be something like
	Foo().Bar( YieldAnotherTemp() )
assuming that YieldAnotherTemp() is called after Foo()?
