Unfortunately, there are some issues that make FPC at the moment unuseable on MacOS

0038492: $setc regression; there is no released compiler download (I know of) that has this fixed [number ? ] darwin-aarch64 crash with cthreads, also reported on the mailing list

I request either a fix of the darwin-aarch64 crash or some feedback or write access to the compiler sources (under my new email address ) to fix the issue myself. The only other option I see is to fork the compiler and to make it available for download on my website.

Regards,

Florian is working on getting rid of the sysutils dependency in the math unit, which will solve that.

Indeed. But that raises the question why SetExceptionMask was added to macpas.pp, as the problem is not compiler-mode specific but target-specific <http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=11516 > .....

This can happen on any target when you interface with C or C++ libraries.
