I also think, that this is probably the easiest was to resolve it. I  
hesitated to put that in, because I wanted the fpc.cfg  to be as  
simple as possible.

The changed fpc.cfg file has to be put into the darwin bootstrap tar  
ball, which also contains the bootstrap compiler. sorry for the lack  
of documentation.
Actually my fpc.cfg file contains:

-Fl/usr/lib
-Fl/sw/lib
-Fl/usr/X11R6/lib

Should I put that into the darwin default fpc.cfg file?

Maybe, Ales could put his experiences to the wiki page. Just in case  
people using other libraries or installers. As much as I know  
darwinports puts its stuff into /opt.
