For fpmake we can use the same algorithm as currently used in the generated 
Makefiles.

Depending on a fpc.cfg is not an option for installing packages from a 
repository. That will give
more problems than it solves. E.g. people having -Mdelphi in the fpc.cfg and 
the package expects
-Mfpc, because that it the compiler default.
