Yep, excellent!

Hum, ok, but I assume to take the risk.
Finally, the worst that can happen is fail to compil.
Nice, FPC is nearly OOTB now.
Only miss a very, very little patches: the "so.n" of course and the
searchpath order.
I feel that "so.n" patch has a possibility to be apply, I dont feel so much
hostility about it.
So I keep my force for the last combat, the "searchpath order":
compiler/option.pas line 3349
function check_configfile(fn:string; var foundfn:string):boolean;
if not FileExists(fn) then // current dir
if
CfgFileExists(IncludeTrailingBackslash(ExtractFilePath(ParamStr(0)))+fn)
then // add this:
foundfn:=IncludeTrailingBackslash(ExtractFilePath(ParamStr(0)))+fn //
dir of compiler
else
Just convince that placing a config file in the same directory than then
compiler is not a crime in Unix.
And prove that directory of compiler has to be in second position for
searching.
And that it will not break any compatibility, even for Windows.
OK, I am ready for the combat, I am sure of my arguments.
Fre;D
