Instead of the expected {$I %FPCTARGETOS%} = win. Which is ok
because the target IS i386-win32.
Not the target for which you compile fpmake, because fpmake has to
run on the host.
Must be my ignorance regarding cross-compiling, but don't you use
two compilers in that case? I mean how is a win cross-compiler
going to create valid executables on a linux host?
Using a cross-assembler and cross-linker (either external or internal
to the compiler). You only need a separate compiler if you compile
for a different cpu platform. And even then you may also want to
cross-compile the entire code on the host platform and only copy the
resulting binary to the target platform.
