It will install a file called ppcrossx64. My own build script renames it to ppcx64 after "make install" (and before building the installer package). The reason the default is ppcrossx64, is because otherwise inside the compiler dir the built native compiler would overwrite the built cross-compiler, and installing both into the same prefix would not be possible either. However, there is no reason on Darwin to use different name for native and for cross-compilers (you can combine both into a fat binary, if you absolutely want two versions), and always using the same name makes it easier for scripts to call the compiler using a fixed name. > When I compile with 'fpc -Px86_64 hello.pas' i get the error: > > Fatal: Compilation aborted > Error: /usr/local/bin/ppcx64 returned an error exitcode > macuser@macpc~/Development/Base/test$ /bin/sh: x86_64-darwin-as: command > not found > > Which tells fpc fell back to the 2.6.4 complier That error says that some program cannot find a cross-assembler, which is a message emitted by a compiler binary (not by the "fpc" utility). That message is not specific to either FPC 2.6.4 or to 3.x. It suggests that the compiler is not using the default /etc/fpc.cfg configuration file, or an otherwise custom fpc.cfg file that does not contain the necessary ifdefs to prevents a cross-compiling prefix from being added to the assembler and linker when targeting Darwin (any architecture) from a Darwin (any architecture) system.
