[fpc-pascal] Where is fpmkconv?

[Darius Blaszijk]

I believe I found a better solution to the problem. In fprepos.pp two 
function OSToString and CPUToString are defined.

So a string ./units/$(CPU_TARGET)-$(OS_TARGET)

would be represented as './units/' + CPUToString(Defaults.CPU) + '-' + 
OSToString(Defaults.OS)
