A small warning, and possibly another outdated point, but afaik this might
go wrong if starting FPC version <> built FPC version.
Check make install output to see what "fpc"/"ppc386" binaries are used for
the process (since the version number of the destination depends on it)

That shouldn't be necessary as Mattias already pointed out.

Non windows as target brings in binutils. For windows they are built in.
