[lazarus] String Addition FCL Problem

[Baeseman, Cliff]

I will try to hack something together until we resolve this.

I have to be able to append strings together. TiniFile would also be nice
for building the config and project file but it has the H switch also. I
have a copy of tinifile renamed so that I can use this until we figure this
out. I am going to try and remove the switch tonight and see if  I can use
this renamed TIniFile.

I'll take a look at it. But removing the $H+ switch will use shortstrings
instead of ansistrings, i don't know if you'll like that ;)
