i think what florian means is that you have to use an eabi ppcarm as a
starting compiler if you'd like to compile fpc in your scratchbox.  so
you'll have to create one by cross compiling from i386 or whatever
arch you're using.

so you'll have to make compiler_cycle CPU_TARGET=arm OPT="-dFPC_ARMEL"
bla bla bla, then copy the ppcarm to somewhere your scratchbox can see
it, then specify it as the starting compiler with make blablabla
FPC=/path/to/ppcarm
