I'm using the original mail above (2014!) because the same problem
still exists in the current version.

This won't happen with all frames, but just ones that have components
with published properties as TCollection type, for example.

Using fpcupdeluxe on Windows:
- first, I have installed the version that still uses SVN (FPC 3.2.0
rev 45643, Laz rev 64642), and the problem still there;
- then, I have used the new fpcupdeluxe version that uses Git instead
SVN, selecting the branches fpc-3.2.0 + laz-stable, and the problem
still there;
- then, keeping FPC as 3.2.0 (from now on), I selected the branches
fpc-3.2.0 + laz-2.0.12, and the problem still there;
- then, I have tried using branch fixes-2.2—which we couldn't use it
in production yet, as I realized this branch has renamed some
packages/components, adding "Laz" as prefix, which will broke the
projects for the team which I'm work with—and the problem still there;
- almost giving up, I have tried a downgrade for 2.0.10 (which uses
rev 63526)—only testing—and the problem still there;
- finally, I have tried using the trunk (Lazarus 2.3.0 rev
main-0-gfb27fcd12a).... and the problem is still there!!!  :\

I believe anyone can reproduce the same explained above using any
component that has at least one published property as TCollection.

Can someone propose a solution and merge it on, at least, fixes-2.0 please?
