Building the freepascal rtl with debug info is, I feel, helpful when debugging application
software. On the other hand, when debugging, stepping into object methods becomes rather annoying,
as stepping into an object method steps into fpc_check_object first (unless the application was
built with -CR-).
So, as a solution, I suggest an rtl conditional that disables the debug info of a small number of
key compiler routines, like fpc_check_object and, for example the compiler glue for ansistrings.
This implies putting those routines in a separate unit as $debuginfo is (as of now) a global option.
Unless, of course, there is a better solution.

Adriaan van Os
