[fpc-pascal] FPC 2.6.2 for DOS/Go32V2 FP.PAS cannot compile with GDB support

[Lubomír Čabla]

Hi Pierre and Tomas,

thank you for your help but I am totally confused and do not know how to
compile the compiler from snapshot.

Could you help me, please? Thank you.

I downloaded fpcbuild.zip, unpacked to Z:\fpcbuild and I got these errors:
