DOS ain't dead

Free Pascal version 2.2.0 released (Announce)

I downloaded the testing prerelease version of FPC 2.2.0 for DOS by Robert Riebisch and tried to compile Blocek.

From my mail to Robert:

"Problem is when compiling Blocek in Release mode.
(I set the compilation directives in this way: If you compile in Debug or
Normal mode, Blocek compiles without PASJPEG so it has no JPG image support.
If you use Release mode, JPG support is enabled.)
So, problem occurs while compilation on line 325 of jmemmgr.pas file in
.\PASJPEG directory. I have no idea what to do with it. Just try it yourself

In FPC 2.1.4 (2.2.0 - release candidate1) is everything OK.

Note: I use slightly modified PASJPEG library from the standard one. The
difference is that I use streams for file I/O and the standard one uses
normal pascal routines."

Conclusion: 2.2.0 it is a regression from 2.1.4
