[fpc-pascal] ARM / SheevaPlug followup

[Prince Riley]

It would seem that its probably best we take some time and try to spec out,
test, and the publish the steps to follow since I've been interested in a
port like this as well.

Can we use the steps followed to port PFC to  the MacOS hardware platform
when it was non-Intel?

Should be be looking at a cross-compile approach using the i386 host (Linux)
and the SheevaPlug developer tools?

How can we condense down the FPC libraries and what linking strategy should
we use? (static)

Just a few questions that I have on my mind looking at this.
