Hi,

I get the following error while compiling fpc 2.5.1 for arm-wince:

Does anybody else get this error?

svn from today version 17569

make all CPU_TARGET=arm OS_TARGET=wince

on Mac OS X 10.6, starting with fpc-2.4.4 gives the same error.

The problem is most likely related to the ordering of the include paths.

I have changed the paths so it works correctly for win32 (it was including the wrong file, causing all logging to go to a file instead of the system log), but it may be that for other platforms, the ordering must be checked.
