I'll see next time my Lazarus is updated. If the current version works
with fpc 2.6.2 that could happen immeadiately.

Tried that solution already, but it does not help. There must be
something special later in the form creation chain, that forces
selection on the listbox and in turn trigger SelectionChange.

If the assignment of OnSelectionChange hanlder is done a bit later, in
FormShow that is, it works as expected.

Maybe something else regarding the creation of forms has changed inside
LCL between Lazarus 1.2 and 1.3.
