[Lazarus] Bump issue

[R.Smith]

Hi all,

I would like to know how to bump an issue in the bug tracker and I'm 
asking here because I don't wish to irritate the devs.

Essentially the issue has been solved last year October already, but not 
getting committed and closed, and I'm worried it won't make it into the 
next release, and I really need it. (I've patched locally for now but 
will revert to trunk on next release).

https://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=37849

LacaK found the solution and proposed a patch, and Juha Manninen asked 
that someone with commit rights to FPC commit it. The FPC committers 
probably do not read the Lazarus bugs, so it has not been done and closed.

I wish to gently remind the FPC devs to please not forget to apply this.
What is the optimal/correct way to do this?


Thank you kindly,
Ryan
