[fpc-devel] weird interaction with gdb / stepping / 2.7.1

2013-05-14 Thread Martin
I have 2 matching reports (but so far unable to reproduce myself) - both are 64 bit - at least one is linux and uses gdb 7.5.1 I believe the other is linux too, not sure what gdb, (and he tested on win (not sure 64 or 32bit) where it did not happen) [ this may point to a linker issue
