64-bit Windows:
CompareValue(constant, currencyvariable):
3.2.0: OK.
Trunk: Error: Can't determine which overloaded function to call

CompareValue(currencyvariable, currencyvariable):
3.2.0: Error: Can't determine which overloaded function to call.
Trunk: OK

CompareValue(currencyvariable, constant):
3.2.0: OK
Trunk: Error: Can't determine which overloaded function to call

32-bit fpc 3.2.0/trunk: no problem.

So, most likely this has nothing to do with generics?
I'm using r47193 of fpc trunk

@wp: a temporary fix for compiling ExCtrls with fpc trunk would be to
assign the constant to a temp variable (in TSpinEditExBase)?
