I have now been able to try it on SuSE also. With the changes indicated, 
  the fpc rpm will build and install correctly on 32 and 64 bit Fedora 5 
and SuSE 10.1. Without the patch neither 64 bit package will build, so I 
think this is a useful patch.

The 32 and 64 bit packages will install simultaneously on Fedora core 5 
(and seem to pass basic tests). For SuSE I think a fpc-32bit.x86_64.rpm 
would be required for simultaneous 32 and 64 bit operation, which I 
think is basically the 32 bit package with the overlapping bits removed, 
which would indeed require more work.
