I was doing some tests with fpmake and came across what appears to be an inconsistency.

When fpmaking a program a units/cpu-os is created but the commandline parameters for FPC are "-FE." which causes the tool and possible other units to be placed in the directory where the program is located. When calling "fpmake clean", the clean algorithm cannot find either the .ppu/.o or the .exe files as it searches the units directory and not the root dir.

I would like to patch this inconsistency, but I am not sure what the consensus is on fpmaking tools.

1) should -FU.units/cpu-os be used, so all compiled stuff is separated from the executable which will result in the root dir 2) should -FE. be used as it is now, but the units directory not be created anymore and the clean algorithm adjusted so it searches the right directory?
