After some discussion, something to try:

try adding -dNO_THREADING to CROSSOPT (for target) and maybe also to OPT
(for host)

It will disable threading inside fpmake by not USESing cthreads, eliminating
the need for cross-linking to work at all.

That being said, I don't like FPC simply silently dropping those
objectfiles.  That should be improved, please file a bug (but I think that
is more something long term for trunk, not 2.6.2)
