It got even more confusing after I cleaned the lazbuild directory
because I figured out that there were compiled units from *before* I
made the changes (I made changes to aopt386 and also csopt386) and
then it wouldn't even compile at all anymore.

It seems I somehow managed to mess up something in the lpi file or it
was Lazarus' fault, it suddenly started complaining about globals
could not find cpuinfo. After I did a make clean and also svn revert
pp.lpi (because it seemed to be messed up too) and tried again now it
seems to work as expected.
