But isn’t the complaint valid to a certain degree: if one cross compiles from x86_64-win64 to i386-win32, then the wrong DLLs are checked due to folder redirection, no? We have only code in place for the other direction (i386-win32 to x86_64-win64). _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org https://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
