Hello to all possible interested MIPS hackers, as I read the wiki page http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Native_MIPS_Systems it looks like actual status of FPC for MIPS is a little behind the head development and stalled at some point as described by Mark, I do plan to use FPC for MIPS with

Main problem with MIPS is to get hands on a reasonable development system (full fledged unix like Debian Linux, *BSD, CPU in the range of 1 GHz, 128 MB or more RAM, at least 1 GB of HD/SSD). Cross compiling is possible of course, but it makes testing and bug fixing very tedious. If ssh to such a
