Such problems usually mean that the stat or statfs record needs adjustments. You can find the "stat" record definition in rtl/bsd/ostypes.inc. statfs is in rtl/<yourosdir>/ptypes.inc > I've narrowed down the problem to a malfunctioning strpas command, and > further to the "move" command. This is probably an issue of gdb being confused about formal parameters. I think @formalpara will get you the location on the stack of that parameter (it's passed in a register in that case, but FPC will copy it back to the stack locally if you compile without optimisations), not its value. Parameter passing on x86-64 is identical for all platforms except for Win64, so it would be very strange if it went wrong in such a common routine only on your new platform.
