If you want to report bugs it would be nice if you

1. check whether it was already reported. Most generic bugs have the tag 
"generics", which you can reach here: 
http://bugs.freepascal.org/tag_view_page.php?tag_id=3 (click on 
"attached issues" in the upper right to see a list of all generics bugs 
(opened or closed) that are currently in Mantis)
2. add the tag "generics" to new bug reports, so that I can find them 
quickly.

This would help already if you discover bugs.

Sven
