Anyway, even with that older Rasbian release FPC 3.0.1 is now making a valiant attempt to compile Lazarus. Whichever way that goes I'll discuss it in the Lazarus mailing list.

Just in case this is something that anybody thinks is worth discussing:

The good news is that after successful tests on x86 and x86-64 Linux (Debian Jessie), yesterday evening I was able to compile and run Lazarus 1.4 using FPC 3.0.1 on a SPARC running OpenSXCE (very approximately, Solaris 11).

The bad news is that when I try to do the same natively on a Raspberry Pi running 2014-era Raspbian, it consistently fails with

I mention this here rather than in the Lazarus ML because of the successful tests on other platforms. The failure is the same on both Lazarus 1.4 and lazarus-trunk, which suggests that it's not something gross like an out-of-RAM condition. For various reasons I'm making very heavy going of upgrading to a more recent Raspbian (e.g. 2015-05-05) and I think it would be useful for somebody with a current version to check this combination, alternatively if somebody could tell me what options etc. to use to get more detailed failure info...
