Wipe (or move out the compiler's unit path) the rtl/ directory in the
installed FPC, and rebuild FPC.

i will do that when power returns... extremely high winds have lead to a lot of damage in this area :(

Note that not erasing the unit dir when doing a snapshot update is a bad
idea for exactly this reason (moving an unit in SVN will permanently leave
multiple compiled versions in the units dir)

that's why i run make clean and/or make distclean before updating from SVN... past discussions say that this should avoid this problem... but, as you and another noted, evidently the fpc config is pointing to the (now old) rtl directory and that needs to be changed, too...

in any case, thanks for all responses on this... when power returns, i'll be revisiting this ;)
