Just a brief note to say that using the distributed 2.0.0 binaries I was able to compile and install 2.0.4. Normal minor problems with a couple symlinks and fpc.cfg, but nothing's obviously broken since I was playing with it last Summer.

2.0.4 or 2.1.4?

2.0.4 for the moment I'm afraid, since that's the one that I was reasonably certain I could get working. I'm currently looking at Lazarus for i386 and SPARC using the same compiler and sources in both cases, assuming that I can get somewhere with that I'll try to progress to 2.1.4.

Lazarus for SPARC has a bug that doesn't occur on i386, this is likely an endian issue but could possibly be a compiler bug.

All on Linux, I'm not in a position to check the situation with a (recent) Solaris.
