[fpc-devel] GDB barfs on FPC generated stabs.

[Bruce Tulloch]

Since moving to FPC 2.1.4 we noticed a lot of the with-related bugs
went away. We're now working with FPC 2.3.1 from SVN and we'll report
any bugs we find. Same for the Lazarus/LCL/GTK issues etc.

Thanks and well done to all to get 2.2 out the door :-)

Cheers, Bruce.
