They plan to use LLVM (though this is not mentioned in that roadmap

Regarding the multiple request I read in the past in the FPC forums to
move FPC to use a "standard" backend (such as LLVM), this seems like a
rather logical move (also regarding that it seems to be rather undoable
to use GNU as a backend for an Object Pascal compiler).

Free Pascal will never move solely to a backend like LLVM. A part of the reason is that not all platform-os combinations are supported by LLVM that are supported by FPC. Also Florian does not look like he wants to give up fiddling around in the backend ^^
