I just wanted to add that this bug is most probably specific to the debug format used: only the dwarf debug format generated information that triggered that bug.
The reason that we generate such debug info for DWARF (namely encoding "var" parameters as C++ reference parameters) is because the DWARF attribute to specify var parameters (DW_AT_variable_parameter) is not yet supported by GDB (which is partly my fault, because I never submitted a bug about this). You can compile the compiler with - dgdb_supports_DW_AT_variable_parameter to make it generate such tags instead of reference parameters when using DWARF.
So don't be surprised if you never saw that problem, it's just because you probably use stabs debug information.
It did work correctly (with DWARF) in GDB 6.8. It broke with 7.0. Jonas _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
