[Lazarus] Project Groups error - "Invalid floating point operation"

[Graeme Geldenhuys]

Hi,

I've just upgrade my Lazarus to the latest trunk revision on my native
FreeBSD system, and in a Linux VM. On FreeBSD the IDE seems to work, and
I can use Project Groups.

In the VM I get instant IDE crash with the error message "Invalid
floating point operation".  I know about previous "index out of bounds"
errors, which is believed to be caused by various installed packages. I
must add that my Lazarus in the Linux VM has a lot more packages
installed than the copy on FreeBSD.

In both cases I used 64-bit FPC v2.6.4 to compile Lazarus. I did a 'make
clean' before I did a 'make bigide', and then a "Options -> Build
IDE..." to get my custom installed packages.

Anybody else see this error yet?

I did some more testing. As soon as I remove "project groups" package,
then the IDE runs fine with my collection of installed packages. Install
"project groups", and then I get this error again at startup.
