Is there a good&easy way to keep two FPC versions next to each other?

There is, as Vincent explains. You should however keep in mind to compile your 
Lazarus (or in fact the LCL) with the same compiler as your project (that uses 
the LCL), or you will probably get an error like 'Can''t find unit interfaces'. 
(At least, this is from my experience)

Just as you can have multiple versions of FPC on one computer, you can also 
make a seperate debug version of the compiler, with for example line backtrace 
info (-gl). This can sometimes be pretty helpful when debugging.

The same trick btw also works under windows; you can then have multiple 
compilers with paths like C:\fpc\2.0.0\, C:\fpc\2.0.1\, C:\fpc\2.1.1\ and 
C:\fpc\2.1.1d\. (where 'd' is short for debug) (Example: make clean, make build 
OPT='-gl', make install INSTALL_PREFIX='C:\fpc\2.1.1d')

Regards,

Bram
