So it would be cool if free pascal compiler could compile pascal

AFAIK, other than gcc, FP is designed to drop the ASM source code step
of code generation and is intended to directly output a linkable binary.
An internal linker is optionally usable in some archs as well, making FP
directly output an executable
FPC does generate ASM. You can see it by adding the option "-al", if I
remember correctly. There is just one difference: unlike GCC FPC
contains an internal assembler for i386 (and maybe x86_64 as well).
Other targets like arm need an external assembler binary.
