At the moment I've got 0.9.28.2, 0.9.28.3 and 0.9.29 which are all 
running fine with the 2.4.0 FPC compiler. I can update all of these from 
svn and recompile from the command line, or rebuild in situ.

I've also got 0.9.26 for which I need to use 2.2.4.

I find that the -pcp option to separate Lazarus configurations depending 
on the underlying FPC version is useful, I've got separate binary and 
source trees in /usr/local/lib/fpc.
