These settings are fine. -g- means no debugging info.

With above setings ("-O2 -g- -Xs"), check clean + build IDE, check "Clean
all" and do a build.

Your main problem is that you are using probably old cross binutils for
arm-wince. The assembler found here
ftp://ftp.freepascal.org/pub/fpc/contrib/cross/arm-wince-binutils.zip is
version 2.15.94 while .secrel32 was introduced in 2.16.
You could check here for a newer version (cygwin required!):
