This is normal. The "Makefile.fpc" basically contain the important parts 
of the makefile (which units are used on which system etc.) and are used 
to generate the "Makefile" using the utility "fpcmake" which is found in 
"utils/fpcm".

No need to use "-f". "make" defaults to "Makefile", "makefile" and some 
others.

This seems to be related to building the textmode IDE.
If you don't need the textmode IDE you can try the following workaround:
Open the "Makefile" in the base directory and search for "IDE=1". Remove 
the "1" so that it reads "IDE=". Save the file and try again. This 
should stop the building (and thus its linking) of the textmode IDE.

Perhaps a "NOIDE" option should be added to the base makefile...
