Yes.  the compiler is 1.0.10

When compiling the unit
-  Strings ,  the error says that SIZEINT is not defined.
-  BaseUnix , the error says that TSTATFS is not defined.

I've determined that SizeInt is defined in rtl/inc/systemh.inc , which is
included in rtl/unix/sysunixh.inc.  And sysunixh.inc is included in
bsd/system.pp .
I'm not sure what can be done to compile the Strings unit  ?
( maybe I should somehow tell the compiler to use the newly compiled
sysbsd.ppu , and not the system unit that came with fpc 1.0.10 ? )
