[fpc-pascal] Linux Install: Is it me or the documentation? ;-)

First let me say how pleased I am to discover FreePascal. 'Twas my
favourite programming language way back around 1988-89, being the last
time I put my serious programming goggles on.

So I'm trying to set this leopard up on Ubuntu (the Badger variety) and
am following the user manual.

Downloaded the .tar file; extracted to a temporary directory. (p11)

Ran the install script as root (or rather, equivalent thereof)
sudo ./install.sh and accepted all defaults (p12)

Ran the test 'fpc hello' (p14). It fails. Run it will full directory
listing, even tho' config has been written to /etc. Still fails.

Umm... Less than satisfactory, verdade?
