It turns out that the permissions of the directories are at the source of
this problem.  I tried it from an administrator account, but that didn't
work.  Then I changed the owner of the whole dirtree at
/usr/local/share/lazarus from root to myself.  This solved the compile
error above.

Two new issues arise:

  *  Why is the installation (on Mac OS X) done in this way?  Apparently
     it breaks the ability to install packages.  How to solve that in
     a user-friendly way?  Who is involved in this part of Lazarus?

     This concerns the recent 0.9.16 release of Lazarus for Mac OS X,
     installed through the accompanying installer.

  *  The compile still fails, but now for a completely different reason:

This concerns the recent 0.9.16 release of Lazarus for Mac OS X, installed
through the accompanying installer.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

        Tom
