yes, it does...

nothing yet... the idea is to be able to draw from several revisions and see how 
one's own programs come out... it isn't necessarily that these "flavors" are 
being tested but to give those using my script the choice of which they want to 
use...

BTW: you found a bug... i thought i had made the change from copying 
lazarus.new.exe but i guess i didn't... my system halts for approval on certain 
items and in this case, it sat for a few days awaiting ACK of the new lazbuild 
starting up... there's supposed to be only 4 there... the 4 default ones... and 
lazarus.exe should be a copy of one of them... however, in the above case, 
lazarus.exe is a new debug one and none of the others were generated... 
interesting ~200K difference, though... the ones with the _rXXXXX in them are 
actually r36581 and the lazarus.exe is r36661... i should have noticed this when 
i was posting before :(

plus, someone asked a while back about the compiled size of the ide's exes 
during the time that the jvm stuff was being added... i had about 20 or so exes 
but no way to differentiate them without starting them and looking at 
help->about... at that time i was doing the build from inside the ide and then 
manually numbering like lazarus01.exe, lazarus02.exe and could then only attempt 
to rely on the filedate to get close to the revision...

i find it kinda interesting that "normal" is larger than "debug" yet "debug" has 
more details... i'm assuming that "clean up + build all" has no optimizations at 
all... i guess this should be seen in the build profiles...
