Thanks Jonas, noted. I'm going to step back a little and build a clean 2.6.0 from an fpcbuild .zip, build a Lazarus 1.0, and then see how many issues still give obvious problems. Mantis suggests that the issues I reported in the latter part of last year were fixed in 2.7.1, but so far my experience of 2.6.0 on SPARC suggests that either they were backported to that release or I applied the patches manually (I usually keep better notes of this than I appear to have done in this case).
Unfortunately, mantis is seldom updated when changes are merged back these days. I used to do that for all changes merged back by anyone, but it's become too much work (and it's also much more work to figure out this information afterwards compared to immediately updating mantis after merging, since in the latter case you don't have to look up whether something was merged back and if so, in which revision).
