Hi Linaro folks!
It seems that the system running the armv8l has a pretty old pascal compiler. I checked the log and it seems that, with that compiler version, using fpc -g will generate stabs information, rather than DWARF information.
So in one sense, these regressions are expected, but more importantly, you should take a look at updating the armv8l machine so that pascal tests can continue working
