Of course, I'm not fussed if the patch is rejected. It was more of
compensation for something that isn't always the user's fault and tended
to block "make all".

Building trunk of today fails on Windows: Error: Invalid DLL

Here's how I managed to fix it.

Finally good news.
In taskmanager I had to stop one process,then go to services, find
xtu3service.exe, right-click, then "open services", find that service
again (now called XTUOCDriverService) in the newly opened window,
right-click, select properties, then set Startup type (? "Opstart
type") to Disabled.
After a reboot I was able to rename that common.dll to _common.dll,
rebooted again.
All this as administrator of course.
Finally after all that I was able to build fpc for 32-bit.

And if that does not work maybe this can help?
Looking with Windows Explorer at the Common.dll in question:
Productname: Intel(R) Extreme Tuning Utility
The guide on how to remove this utility:
https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000032459/processors/processor-utilities-and-programs.html
That unfortunately did not work for me, hence the solution above.
At least it may give you some clues where to start.
