[fpc-devel] ICE when compiling a 3-line program

[Miguel Ojeda]

Hi!

When I was practicing my Pascal's skills yesterday before an exam, I
managed to ICE fpc. I thought it was a bug in the fpc of my Debian
distribution. However, I tried to compile the program in a server of
my faculty and also fpc crashed there.

I don't know if someone has reported this before or has been already
fixed (I don't follow this ML); if so, excuse me.

I have been reduced the bug into a minimal program:

program ice;
type t = set of 1..5;
begin 1 in t end.

The following happens when trying to compile it:


migojed at jair ~ $ cat ice.pas
program ice;
type t = set of 1..5;
begin 1 in t end.
migojed at jair ~ $ fpc ice.pas

Thank you for developing fpc!
