The spec file also compiles smart.

I solved it, by adding -Fl../$(OS_TARGET) to the fcl/net/Makefile.fpc
options.
Now I'm trying to compile a fpc rpm under RH9. First bug is the deprecated
rpm call to build the package. This can easily be fixed in the Makefile.fpc
with 
rpm <options> || rpmbuild <options>

Then I'm getting the next error:

error: Installed (but unpackaged) file(s) found:
  /usr/doc/fpc-1.0.8/examples/...

Somehow the examples went to /usr/doc instead of /usr/share/doc.
