I've tested the FPC trunk and it works well. Here is the log of both wersions:

Hello
(sid_armel-dchroot)abou at abel:~/hedgewars-0.9.22-dfsg/obj-arm-linux-gnueabi/hedgewars$ 
This shows that the issue was fixed in trunk. Can you please help finding the revision that may fixed that so we can extract a patch and fix 3.0.0?
As long as this bug is open, fpc transition to testing is blocked and this is quite unpleasing for many of our users.
