[Lazarus] record literal in FPC?

[Andreas Schneider]

Interesting. IIRC that worked correctly in Delphi 2010 (it's been a
while ...). This /might /be a bug in FPC.

The root of the problem is how properties are handled. Afaics however,
the use of /with/ should cause it to assign the final record afterwards.
Apparently it doesn't - at least not always. Could be by design, could
be a bug. I'll check the bug tracker later and may report that. (You can
do that yourself, if you want, but sooner or later I would like that
functionality to work too, so I've a personal interest in this and
therefore would not mind to report it :-))

Greetings,
Andreas
