[fpc-pascal]FPC1.9.2Beta issues (mostly in linux)

[Rodrigo R]

Hi all!!

Returning to fpc, and it's worth, as usual ^_-. I have
started using the 1.9.2Beta version for windows and
for linux, and i want to make some comments regarding
problems i had during the compilations:

- [linux] There is some comments at pthread.inc that i
had to uncomment in order to compile my code (=>
JEDI-SDL)
- [linux] The gettimeofday() routine is lost from the
unix unit, and the one used in oldlinux does not work.
Also, I cannot find (outside of oldlinux) where is the
GetEnv() routine.
- [both] During the compilation of my code i had the
following error (both in windows and in linux, this is
the error from the windows compiler):

<<
Compiling estadistica.pas
estadistica.pas(58,51) Warning: Automatic type 
conversion from floating type to COMP which is an
integer type
Compilation aborted estadistica.pas:64
Runtime error 207 at 0x004F177B
  0x004F177B
  0x0042DD7F

  0x00436FFD
  0x004531DD
  0x00436FFD
  0x004531DD
>>

...sorry if i cannot give an snippet, i tried to
isolate the error, but no use. I can only say that I
have to compile the code two times, in the first round
hangs, in the second one it uses the old libraries and
everything goes smooth.

Cheers,
