Nope, the news seems to be that good. ;-)

I used MSEide to compile my project. All units involved are compiled as
part of the project (no "packages" with different compiler settings like
Lazarus does). All previously compiled units were removed between
compilations (compiled units are output to a single directory so makes
the task easy). Compiler settings are identical, and so too is the
~/.fpc.cfg file. I simply told MSEide to switch between FPC executables.

I was pleasantly surprised by the outcome too.
