Well, no trunk ;-)
On Windows I know how to easily switch between using compilers.
3.2.0 is in path and I have some batch files to change that for 3.0.4
and trunk respectively (only in the current console session).
I never had the courage to figure out how to do that on linux (in such
a way it does not interfere with my normal setup).
I use a script to change symlinks that are inside a directory that's
in PATH.
In the past I used the -V parameter a lot.
-V<x> Append '-<x>' to the used compiler binary name (e.g. for version)
This allows to make symlinks like e.g. ppcx64-3.0 to
/usr/local/lib/fpc/3.0.4/ppcx64 and then compile with fpc -V3.0 etc.
Of course this meant that the fpc.cfg had to be carefully crafted with
$FPCVERSION
The biggest drawback is that it only goes for the compiler not for the
other binaries. AND it requires a parameter, but for a quick check with
an old/release compiler that is enough.
