[fpc-pascal] Bug in generics

[Yann Mérignac]

Hi,

I have found a bug with generics. It exists in 2.6.4 but not in 2.7.1 (rev
27862). I searched in bug tracker but can't find a corresponding bug
report. Should I report it or consider it's fixed ?

Program :
------------------------------------
program genbug_002;

{$mode objfpc}{$h+}

uses
  Classes, SysUtils;

type
  { TAbstractVector }
  TAbstractVector = class
  end;

  { TGenVector }
  generic TGenVector<_TItem_> = class(TAbstractVector)  // ERROR
  end;

  TStringVector = class(specialize TGenVector<String>)
  end;

begin

end.
------------------------------------

Error message :
