Hi.
I feel strange that FPC try to recompile precompiled unit.
FPC require source file of precompiled unit. For example,
when I try to recompile RTL, FPC compile 'sysos2.pas'. And
when FPC compile 'objpas.pas', FPC recompile 'sysos2.pas',
and FPC reports error messages, and gives up compiling.
Below is process of making RTL.
--------
F:\lang\fpc\source\rtl>make
F:/LANG/EMX/BIN/MAKE.EXE -C os2 all
MAKE.EXE[1]: Entering directory `/lang/fpc/source/rtl/os2' as -o prt0.oo2 prt0.as

I cannot understand why FPC try to recompile units.
For better FPC.
