[Lazarus] unable to rebuild lazarus

Hi,

Since my latest Lazarus svn update of today, I noticed the editor
cursor (caret) behaves differently.

eg:
I could place the cursor in column 30 and press the down arrow.
Irrespective of the amount of characters in each line I cross, the
cursor will stay at column 30.

I played around with the editor settings to see if I can get that
functionality back again. The closest I could get was "Keep caret X
position".  But even then the cursor jumps around (to eol positions)
if I went from a long line to a few short lines.  This is distracting.

Was the constant cursor (caret) position feature removed on purpose,
or was it broken by accident due to the last couple of editor changes?


Regards,
  - Graeme -
