AFAIK, fpcmake is another beast: it creates a Makefile based on infos in 
Makefile.fpc

"make cycle" should call the "make" executable, which reads "Makefile" 
in the current folder and does stuff for the target "cycle" defined in 
"Makefile".

however, never tried the go32v2 thing. only doing it on linux ..
