This is as designed.
The symlink is only installed with the installsymlink make target

Why?
Because "make install" is often used to install development versions
of FPC, and the you don't necessarily want it to change the default
compiler version at the same time.
This means that "make install" is effectively broken as the symlink
is essential for the compiler to work.
It is not essential, you can always call it explicitly via e.g.
/usr/local/lib/fpc/3.0.0/ppc386
