:-) Ok, then I'll skip the apache support for now and start playing with 
the cgi stuff. seems to be easy portable later.

fpcmake -V says 2.0.0 from today. It's from fixes_2_2 svnrev 7559.
I didn't experiment with fpc-trunk, cause currently it seems too "hot". 
However, I checked it out and searched all Makefiles as well as *.fpc 
and there is absolutely no appearance of "fpapache" .. so I don't 
understand why/how it should be compiled.
