I did that here also. But what is someone put is 'uses dbf' by himself? He
will never know why this isn't working, unless he knows how fpc handles
lowercase/uppercase unit file names.

That's a good question. But try it, place a breakpoint in dbf.pas and see
how the breakpoint is ignored. But it works when you trace into a method
which is implemented in dbf.

Lazarus can't place the breakpoint: (The file does exist)
TDebugManager.BreakpointAdded A /home/test/fpc/fpc/fcl/db/dbase/Dbf.pas
809
[Debugger] Log output: &"No source file named Dbf.pas.\n"
