Hi

On the main WWW page you wrote that the development of FPC will be focused on 1.1 version. However, are you planning to work on 1.0.11 version, i.e. 1.0.10 + fixes branch ?

If the answer is "yes", I have two bugs that I found in FPC 1.0.10. The first bug was already present in late FPC 1.0.7 versions and I reported it to this list - but I received no response to my letter. None of this bugs were present in FPC 1.0.6. I really appreciate your work on the best Pascal compiler ever, but it's a shame that new FPC version introduces _new_ bugs compared with the old 1.0.6.

I'm attaching two sources with comments that demonstrate the bugs.

Regards,
Michalis Kamburelis

No.

You should use the bug reporting form on our website to report bugs. If a bug is reported here, it most of the time is either fixed immediately (if someone immediately knows what's wrong and has time to fix it when he reads the mail), or not at all.

We try our best not to do that, but accidents happen. When fixing one bug, there's always a risk that you introduce another bug. We did not add any features to 1.0.8/1.0.10 to minimize this risk.

Please submit a bug report, so that it will be fixed in 1.1. Thanks.

These two bugs are not present in the latest FPC 1.1 so I guess there is no reason to submit them anymore. I don't use FPC 1.1 because it fails with some other errors. So now I think I'll try to separate and submit these bugs in FPC 1.1.

Thanks for the answer.
