Description:
Binary distribution of 2.4.2 installed on NT4 has an apparent widechar problem.
This was originally seen when attempting to compile Lazarus (0018600), but might also be causing other problems.
Steps to reproduce:
program test;
begin
Write('"');
Write('1 * ' + widechar('1'));
WriteLn('"')
end.
// Returns "" on NT4 but "1 * 1" on Linux/Solaris.
Additional information:
This does not occur on Windows 2000, on any tested Linux (Debian v5 on various platforms), or on Solaris (v8, v10) on SPARC. I've not had an opportunity to test on DOS or other minority OSes.
