Bug#1033763: unblock: fpc/3.2.2+dfsg-20

Severity: normal

Please unblock package fpc
Fixed compiler crash by applying a patch from upstream.
[ Reason ]
When compiling some packages on mipsel, FPC craches with internal error
2003042401. This issue was solved by upstream.
[ Impact ]
The fix is in a file specific to the mipsel code generator, so can not impact
any other architecutre. It adds code generation for a special combination of
opcode and operands. The same code exists already for similar architectures
like SPARC.
[ Tests ]
The code file producing the internal error is now compiled correctly.
There is a test produced by upstream to test this fix, but we decided not to
include it in order not to increase the size of the patch.
[ Risks ]
No risks are foreseen.
[ Checklist ]
[x] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
[x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[x] attach debdiff against the package in testing
[ Other info ]
This patch was produced by FPC upstream mipsel maintainer and was included for
long time in their daily snapshots.
