Follow-up:
It turned out to be an environment issue...
The ~/bin/ dir was created and populated as part of the building of fpc, did not
exist previously.

So when I went to building lazarus fpc was not found because I had not yet
logged out and then on again into my PuTTY connection! It was not on path.

Once I did that fpc was on path and the Lazarus build succeeded.
