The final binary is made, but with errors. Since i cannot run it (i cannot install NetBSD gui), I want to know what these errors mean? Binary is invalid?

Hi,

Can you retry with SVN r43118 and newer?

Apparently, as usual with BSDs, they sometimes break their libc naming compatibility, which is a problem as we link against it, but we don't use their C headers obviously. They renamed the reference to __setlocal_mb_len_max_32 to __setlocale50 in NetBSD 6, which shipped in 2012... I changed it now in our trunk, but this means NetBSD releases earlier than 6 won't be supported. As NetBSD 5 EoL'd in 2014, I don't see this as a problem, necessarily.

BTW, as a testcase, you could build a test-app which uses widestrings and links against libc. It doesn't have to be a GUI app to reporduce this issue.

Thanks for fixing, after FPC update binary compiled okay. You maybe can test final binary:
