[fpc-pascal] var parameters under 64-bit GDB?

Hi,

I'm using FPC 2.4.1 with GDB 6.8 under Ubuntu 8.04.2 LTS on a all 64-bit
system.


All var parameters [even of simple types like Integer, Boolean etc.] show
up as memory addresses instead of their values when debugged. I believe
this is only an issue if 64-bit systems are used.

What is the actual issue?  Limitation of FPC's debug information,
non-Pascal support in GDB, both, other?

Regards,
