These snapshots contain the latest bug fixes, without any major new feature. This should be more stable than the development snapshots (and even the last official release), but there is still no guarantee that these snapshots are bugfree.
The developers consider 1.9.4 unstable; it is only a beta version. Therefore, I would rather not rely on it. It is disappointing that the latest snapshot for the stable version of Free Pascal is dated 2004-05-18 and that the fix for this bug has not been applied to 1.0.10 (or 1.0.11).
We don't have the time to backport fixes. Also a lot of the fixes can't be backported to 1.0.x because of flaws in the design of 1.0.x.
The 1.9.4 beta is at least as stable as 1.0.10.
Maybe you should say that on the web site too.
The daily snapshots of 1.9.5 can be more unstable. But in a lot of cases they are as stable as the latest 1.9.x beta release
