I looked at the FPC Wiki on cross-compilation and tried to install the cross for
win32 into my Lazarus 2.2.4.
https://wiki.freepascal.org/Cross_compiling#From_win64_to_win32

But it seems like the wiki instructions are missing something because it does
not even find what is needed to switch to target win32...
See separate thread about cross-compile.
