No, I don't think so. Those mentioned units are part of FCL, so only the
FCL (or even only the related package in FCL) would need to be
recompiled with DEBUG info enabled. No need to recompile the whole FPC.

To enable debug information you need to pass the -dDEBUG to the make
command. eg:


  cd <fpc-src>/packages/fcl-xml
  make clean
  make OPT=-dDEBUG
  make install
