I've got darwin Mac OS 10.9 running fpc 2.6.2 installed and compiling from the

I'm trying with no success to get 2.7.1 to compile ppcx64 with /usr/local/bin/fpc
->/usr/local/lib/fpc/2.6.2/ppcx64
First of all, reinstall FPC so that /usr/local/bin/fpc is valid again. "fpc" is
an independent program and can never be a symbolic link to a compiler binary. It supports
parameters that the compiler binaries do not support. You cannot overwrite it with a
symbolic link.
I re-installed and it replaced the symlink with the fpc binary. I
retried to build FPC with no luck. Same error as before.
--------- FPC BUILD PROBLEMS------------

PP=/usr/local/lib/fpc/2.6.2/ppc386 works perfectly. Why doesn't ppcx64 work at all?
------------Lazarus Build Problems------------
That's because ppcx64 on Mac OS X is an i386->x86-64 cross-compiler and the
Makefiles are not designed for bootstrapping with cross-compilers. You can work
around it by adding CPU_SOURCE=x86_64, but you can just as well build a new
cross-compiler.
I just need something that works. It's a goal to have 64bit support for
my downloads. I like to have a 64bit build of FPC like on Linux.
Lazarus cannot yet be compiled for x86-64 on Mac OS X (except if you
compile it for GTK or Qt, possibly). Unless you are editing files that
are larger than 1.5GB, it's unlikely you'd notice any difference either.
Ok. At least I know it's not supported yet.
