Good news - fixed it! After studying the full log more closely, I
learnt which configuration file it was reading (~/.fpc.cfg), and found
the problem.
For some reason, all of the directories listed "-Fuusr//lib..." etc.
instead of "-Fu/usr/lib...". I think I accidentally typed the root
directory incorrectly in the install script (I had installed Lazarus to
fix a bug in a 32-bit implementation of my next big update, and had to
reinstall FPC 3.2.2 due to Lazarus using an older version).
Thanks for the advice with OPT="-vwnihut" Pierre, and apologies to
everyone who had to put up with this in their Inboxes! Still, it might
serve to be a useful future reference.

Hi Gareth,
Here's the full log (as a ZIP since the raw text file is over 100kB
in size).
I did do a search of "process.*" in the "/usr/lib/fpc/3.2.2" directory
and only found "process.ppu", "process.o" and "process.rsj" in the
"units/i386-linux/fcl-process" subdirectory - no source file. Do I
need to manually add "/usr/lib/fpc/3.2.2/units/i386-linux/fcl-process"
as a unit directory?
I didn't get the log either, but yes, as Pierre already pointed out,
you should have something like
"-Fu/usr/lib/fpc/3.2.2/units/i386-linux/*" in your fpc.cfg (either
the system-wide one, or the local one in your home directory), and
then it should work for you.

Could you please add OPT="-vwnihut" to the make call?
It probably has a problem with the process unit from release
installation...
But I would like to confirm that this is indeed the issue.

Hi Pierre,
Here attached is the log of me running 'make' for the test suite. It
doesn't matter how far back I go in the commit history or what
compiler
options I specify - it falls over at the same point.

Hi Gareth,
your email is not detailed enough so that we can really help you.
Using a compiler:
TEST_OPT=~/Documents/fpc-opts/compiler/ppc386
as option is certainly not working...
But your error is probably due to an installation issue.
The dotest program will be compiled using your
default Free Pascal installation, and it is highly likely
that your release compiler is not correctly set up.
Are you able to use your release compiler?
If you use a regular user installation, do you have a $HOME/.fpc.cfg
present
that will allow the compiler to find the installed units?
Could you send a full log of the failing make command?

Hi everyone,
There seems to be a problem on i386-linux on the trunk in that I
can't
run the test suite. After successfully building the compiler, I
then go
to the "tests" subdirectory and run "make clean full
TEST_OPT=~/Documents/fpc-opts/compiler/ppc386" and get the
following
error:
Compiling redir.pp
redir.pp(119,3) Fatal: Can't find unit process used by Redir
Notably this doesn't occur under i386-win32.
