Sometimes it is not in the PATH variable.
Try in a terminal
[]$ which ppcppc
This should give you the path to your compiler. If not, then you
must add
the directory to the path.
"which ppcppc" properly reports "/usr/local/bin" which is part of
$PATH variable thanks to your guides. But why Lazarus doesn't
recognize this file? Is this information stored in any Lazarus config
file?
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin
Add this line to /Users/username/.profile
Did it.

Here is the result of whichmake:

/usr/bin/make
whereis make, also reports same path.
And also try specifying the full path of the make to use the make
provide with Free Pascal binary install.
I could not found any other make except that mentioned earlier.
After a lot of effort on this, decided to follow the other way.
Downloaded and installed fpc and lazarus by .dmg files at http://
michael-ep3.physik.uni-halle.de/Lazarus/. All three files downloaded
and installed successfully as installer reported. Opening Lazarus
from inside X11, I see splash to appear and the a message: "The Free
Pascal compiler (filename: ppcppc) was not found. It is recommended
that you install fpc".
This file is installed at /usr/local/bin, checked and normally run.
Sometimes it is not in the PATH variable.
Try in a terminal
[]$ which ppcppc
This should give you the path to your compiler. If not, then you
must add
the directory to the path.
I
cannot figure why this is not found by Lazarus. It could because of
MacOSX way of operating? System's folder are not visible by normal
users. Should I open Lazarus as root? How could I do this? Another
cause could be a wrong path. Lazarus may search for ppcppc into
another path, other than /usr/local/bin. What file should I modify?
If it reads system variables what is it? How could I update a system
variable permanently?
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin
Add this line to /Users/username/.profile
I know, a lot of questions, but I'm stack on this stage for several
days. Any help would be most appreciated. Maybe Vincent could help on
this because in his response is mentioning ppcppc compiler: ...Note
only the compiler (ppcppc or ppc386) is needed....

It looks like you are using the wrong make. Free Pascal with with
the
GNU Make. There are various other makes (Borland make, MS make,
etc),
and they are incompatible.
try this command to see which make you are using: which make
And also try specifying the full path of the make to use the make

Since I don´t know much about Macs I could be wrong.
