Seems that gdb expects double quotes
    FName = "abc"
but then it wants malloc to be defined, and complains about that.

It does support string index, and bool expression:
   FName[0]='a' and FName[1]='b'
That works (in the watches windows) [Note in Lazarus the expression 
isn't properly quoted before being send to gdb. So (since it has spaces) 
you need to double quote the entire expression, before sending it to gdb]

I can also Do:
   SomeString=OtherString
So if you have the desired name in a variable...
