Try setting a breakpoint in
ide\debugmanager.pas
procedure TDebugManager.DebuggerChangeState(ADebugger: TDebuggerIntf; 
OldState: TDBGState);

line 1150
   if FDebugger.State=dsError
   then begin
     Include(FManagerStates,dmsDebuggerObjectBroken);
     if dmsInitializingDebuggerObject in FManagerStates
     then Include(FManagerStates,dmsInitializingDebuggerObjectFailed);
   end;

inside the "if". That should do.


Another test you could do:
Do not use F9 (Run), which builds, and runs.
Instead go to the menu, and choose build. Then when the build finished, 
press run (F9 or menu)

Thanks got them. Unfortunately it does not happen on my system. (Tried 
Windows and linux)

Only the size of the lazarus.exe.

I usually build with
-gh -g -gw -godwarfsets     -Criot   -gtt  -Sa  -O1
