Afaik, the DWARF debug info format does not support "properties" (for  
non-Delphi-style-Pascalites: properties in this language are  
identifiers with which you can associate a getter and/or setter that  
can both be arbitrarily named). Additionally, Free Pascal/Delphi-style  
ansistring and dynamic arrays would require (FPC-specific) support to  
be added to GDB to handle the reference counting for these types. I'm  
not aware of anyone working on support for this.
