It seems I underestimated the issues that this will cause.

I have now all packages that work well on unstable but can't enter testing due
to some cross dependencies.
FPC from unstable is cross checked with tests from CGE and Lazarus from
testing and this of course will not work as all PPU changed CRC due to the -XD
and -Cg flags.

As for now, FPC is only 4 days old, but I fear that even after 5 days, these
errors will continue to prevent it entering testing.
Do you have any advise to unblock such situation?
Should I ask for CGE and Lazarus removal from testing? Or is there any softer
solution?
