Maintenance should be MUCH less work than the initial implementation. So I don't consider this too a big problem. FPC doesn't change that radically that often. > And a FPC only debugger can not debug linked c libraries which we can do Then use GDB for such cases. > currently with gdb.

But for an initial implementation, I think what I listed should suffice to most often used cases. GDB wasn't developer overnight, neither would a FPC debugger. But that is no reason, not to implement one.
