But somehow they didn't include this fix in latest 3.2.2 version, which released several months after in May 22.
A stable release is frozen long before the actual release date.
I think some fixes are stil applied to it but not all.
It's not like 3.2.2 stable release is exactly like trunk version of May 22.
It's branched off a much earlier version.
At least that's my understanding.

O, and BTW... FPC 3.2.2 has been released on May 20th, 2021.
So before 28-12-2021 when this change was made.

If you want to convert the second to the first you have to swap the TColor (32 bit DWord)

Swap function not suitable for this task. It swaps first 2 bytes and last 2 bytes, but I need to swap only second and fourth bytes (Blue and Red values):
Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]
  1. Constant  | TColor
  2. ---------------------
  3. 0RGB      | 0BGR
  4. $00DC143C | $003C14DC
  5.                ^^--^^

I made this with code:
Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]
  1. function FixColorConstant(AColor: TColorRec): TColor;
  2. begin
  3.   {$if defined(FPC_FULLVERSION) and (FPC_FULLVERSION <= 030202)}
  4.   Result := RGBToColor(AColor.B, AColor.G, AColor.R);
  5.   {$ELSE}
  6.   // ToDo: Check if it fixed in modern version
  7.   Result := AColor;
  8.   {$ENDIF}
  9. end;        
  10.
