[fpc-pascal] Building FPC trunk on XP win64

[Birger Jansen]

Hi all,

I'm trying to build FPC trunk version on a XP win64 machine, but the make process just keeps failing. What I did:
 - download FPC Win64 snapshot (Lazarus-0.9.29-28437-fpc-2.4.3-20101124-win64.exe)
 - installed to E:\FPC\ (unfortunately I cannot use another folder on this machine)
 - download FPC sources from svn to E:\FPC\lazarus\fpc\trunk
 - added E:\FPC\lazarus\fpc\2.4.3\bin\x86_64-win64 to the path
 - cd to E:\FPC\lazarus\fpc\trunk
 - run make clean all

The make process goes on for a while, but stops befor it finishes. During the make process I get a lot of these warnings: "WARNING: bash couldn't find /tmp, please create one!". However, the TMP environment variable is set so I don't know why it complains about that. I have followed the same steps before on a win32 machine without problems.

Below are the last lines from the make output.

Does anyone have a suggestion about what to try next to get FPC on my win64 machine?

Kind regards,
  Birger Jansen
