[fpc-devel] Bug while evaluating macros

I have tried to put this into the bug list but got an error message (I have
put that error into the buglist: bug# 4228), so I have to put it in the
mailing list, sorry.

Bug while evaluating macros:

Compilerversion of 25.7.2005 has error (18.7.2005 works!)

{$note hello1}
{$if sizeof ( integer ) = 2 }
  {$ifdef BCDgr4 }
                                  VAR
                                    myMinIntBCD : tBCD ;
  {$endif}
{$else}
{$note hello2}
  {$if sizeof ( integer ) = 4 }
{$note hello2a}
    {$ifdef BCDgr9 }
{$note hello2b}
                                  VAR
                                    myMinIntBCD : tBCD ;
    {$endif}
  {$else}
    {$if sizeof ( integer ) = 8 }
      {$ifdef BCDgr18 }
                                  VAR
                                    myMinIntBCD : tBCD ;
      {$endif}
    {$else}
      {$fatal You have an interesting integer type! Sorry, not supported}
    {$endif}
  {$endif}
{$endif}
{$note hello3}

The sizeof ( integer ) = 4 produces the error:

I assume it has something to do with the withsymtable (weren't there
changes?)

I was not able to construct a short example; when I shortened to a simple
example it did work. So the full code can be found on
http://g--s.de/pas/fmtbcdgs.pas (sorry, 112 kB!)

Solution for the moment: to go back to the FPC version of 18.7.2005
