I've resolved my initial issue. It was something included in the command-line that was causing the error.
I'm trying to use the unmodified linux/powerpc64 files with freebsd. When building bsd/system.pp I get the following: /root/Downloads/fpc-3.2.0/rtl/units/powerpc64-freebsd/system.s: Assembler messages: /root/Downloads/fpc-3.2.0/rtl/units/powerpc64-freebsd/system.s:
