Boy do I feel stupid. Since I installed the full FPC, I had never checked out the comipler from CVS, so obviously I couldn't update it. Duh.

Never mind...

You must do it in a directory where there is no subdirectory compiler. If there are subdirectorie 'compiler' and 'rtl', delete them, and then do cvs -z3 co compiler rtl
This will create a compiler nd rtl directory.

yes, there have been some bugs in the compiler, so it couldn't read the compiled DOM unit which is needed by xmlread.pp

Any ideas? Do I need a new compiler? CVS still says it doesn't know what I am talking about.
