Without a way to reproduce and debug the issue it's very unlikely to get
solved especially if it's a problem that only occurs in very specific
circumstances.

This is not always trivial because the internal errors are sometimes quite 
fiddly. I have a project in which an internal error occurs sometimes. When I do 
a "cleanup and build" (in Lazarus), it works well. There seems to be an 
influence of the order in which units are compiled, because I can change code 
in many places without getting the internal error again. But when I change code 
in other units, I get the internal error, but it's clearly uncorrelated to the 
line at which it occurs.

An exception or an internal error during compilation should *always* be
reported.
Please also provide a minimal, self contained example that shows the
problem.
