Seems to be a language barrier on the

I don't know if the relevant changes have already been merged to fpc main?
(compiling for aarch64 on windows)
If so, then the below question come up.
According to the patch, the
{$IFDEF CPU386} does not work
but
{$IFDEF CPUi386} does (with an "i" in the cpu name.
But according to docs, both should be equal:
https://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/prog/progap7.html
| CPU386 | Free Pascal target is an Intel 80386 or later. | | CPUI386 |
Free Pascal target is an Intel 80386 or later.
Has there been a change?
No. Compiler sources are the reference. options.pas:
{$ifdef i386}
def_system_macro('CPU86');
def_system_macro('CPU87');
def_system_macro('CPU386');
{$endif}
{ new processor stuff }
{$ifdef i386}
def_system_macro('CPUI386');
So both are defined for i386
