[fpc-pascal] Building fpc 3.2.2 from sources - which compiler to use for install?

I am building fpc 3.2.2 from sources on a Linux Mint x64 box.
When I compile fpc inside the downloaded source folder I use this:

make all FPC="$HOME/devel/fpc/ppcx64"

The FPC compiler in this case is 3.2.0, which I have built earlier on another
box. This works fine.

Now I am at the next step and here I am unsure which FPC to specify:

make install PREFIX="$HOME" FPC="$HOME/devel/fpc/ppcx64"

or

make install PREFIX="$HOME" FPC="$HOME/devel/fpc/3.2.2/compiler/ppcx64"

I.e. should I use the newly compiled 3.2.2 in this step or the seed compiler,
which is the previous version?
