I use MSEide in order to cross compile and do remote debugging from Linux x86 
to Raspberry Pi. With that setup it is possible to work on the X86 PC like 
locally on the Pi - solely faster.
Linux x86 -> arm cross environments with cross FPC, cross binutils and cross 
gdb are here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mseide-msegui/files/fpcrossarm/

MSEide has a project template for cross-Pi development, please read 
MSEide+MSEgui README.TXT.
For GUI on the Pi I use MSEgui which is extremely fast. Also MSEide runs 
amazingly fast on Pi, the problem is long FPC compilation times.

FPC fixes_3_0 needs current git master MSEide+MSEgui from here:
