According to the code in compiler\pmodules.pas (~659) (see below) the
compiler decides this depending on the used debug format. I might be
wrong, but for Linux this should be dwarf.

As a rule of the thumb, the default debug informat for 32 bit platforms
(except for iPhoneOS/iOS) is stabs and that for 64 bit platforms is
DWARF. You can force one or the other using -gw/-gs (although stabs
generally doesn't work very well on 64 bit platforms).

I should remember this ^^

Is there any comment about the function name restrictions mentioned in Thomas' mail? In what regards is DWARF better suited than stabs (besides 64-bit support)? Or is there even a FPC wiki page about the pros and cons of the two debug formats?

Sven
