That's because FPC currently only supports LP64 and LLP64 systems.

There are some systems (IIRC some AIX editions) that are ILP64 (iow in C
"int" is 64-bit). 

What FPC will do there is probably still undecided, since it will be a
dilemma between compatibility with the OS it is running on vs compatibility
with other FPC targets.
